    Run these two scripts concurrently:
    
        for ((; ;))
        {
            mkdir /cgroup/sub
            rmdir /cgroup/sub
        }
    
        for ((; ;))
        {
            echo $$ > /cgroup/sub/cgroup.procs
            echo $$ > /cgroup/cgroup.procs
        }
    
    A kernel bug will be triggered:

    We clear cgrp->kn->priv in the end of cgroup_rmdir(), but another
    concurrent thread can access kn->priv after the clearing.
    
    We should move the clearing to css_release_work_fn(). At that time
    no one is holding reference to the cgroup and no one can gain a new
    reference to access it.
    
    v2:
    - move RCU_INIT_POINTER() into the else block. (Tejun)
    - remove the cgroup_parent() check. (Tejun)
    - update the comment in css_tryget_online_from_dir().
