cgroups: forbid noprefix if mounting more than just cpuset subsystem
The 'noprefix' option was introduced for backwards-compatibility of
cpuset, but actually it can be used when mounting other subsystems.
This results in possibility of name collision, and now the collision can
really happen, because we have 'stat' file in both memory and cpuacct
subsystem:
# mount -t cgroup -o noprefix,memory,cpuacct xxx /mnt
Cgroup will happily mount the 2 subsystems, but only 'stat' file of memory
subsys can be seen.
We don't want users to use nopreifx, and also want to avoid name
collision, so we change to allow noprefix only if mounting just the cpuset
subsystem.
