sched/fair: Fix small race where child->se.parent,cfs_rq might point to invalid ones

There is a small race between copy_process() and cgroup_attach_task()
where child->se.parent,cfs_rq points to invalid (old) ones.

        parent doing fork()      | someone moving the parent to another cgroup
  -------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
    copy_process()
      + dup_task_struct()
        -> parent->se is copied to child->se.
           se.parent,cfs_rq of them point to old ones.

                                     cgroup_attach_task()
                                       + cgroup_task_migrate()
                                         -> parent->cgroup is updated.
                                       + cpu_cgroup_attach()
                                         + sched_move_task()
                                           + task_move_group_fair()
                                             +- set_task_rq()
                                                -> se.parent,cfs_rq of parent
                                                   are updated.

      + cgroup_fork()
        -> parent->cgroup is copied to child->cgroup. (*1)
      + sched_fork()
        + task_fork_fair()
          -> se.parent,cfs_rq of child are accessed
             while they point to old ones. (*2)

In the worst case, this bug can lead to "use-after-free" and cause a panic,
because it's new cgroup's refcount that is incremented at (*1),
so the old cgroup(and related data) can be freed before (*2).

In fact, a panic caused by this bug was originally caught in RHEL6.4.
