cgroup: Remove call to synchronize_rcu in cgroup_attach_task
synchronize_rcu can be very expensive, averaging 100 ms in
some cases. In cgroup_attach_task, it is used to prevent
a task->cgroups pointer dereferenced in an RCU read side
critical section from being invalidated, by delaying the
call to put_css_set until after an RCU grace period.
To avoid the call to synchronize_rcu, make the put_css_set
call rcu-safe by moving the deletion of the css_set links
into free_css_set_work, scheduled by the rcu callback
free_css_set_rcu.
The decrement of the cgroup refcount is no longer
synchronous with the call to put_css_set, which can result
in the cgroup refcount staying positive after the last call
to cgroup_attach_task returns. To allow the cgroup to be
deleted with cgroup_rmdir synchronously after
cgroup_attach_task, have rmdir check the refcount of all
associated css_sets. If cgroup_rmdir is called on a cgroup
for which the css_sets all have refcount zero but the
cgroup refcount is nonzero, reuse the rmdir waitqueue to
block the rmdir until free_css_set_work is called.
