cgroups: fix probable race with put_css_set[_taskexit] and find_css_set
put_css_set_taskexit may be called when find_css_set is called on other
cpu. And the race will occur:
put_css_set_taskexit side find_css_set side
|
atomic_dec_and_test(&kref->refcount) |
/* kref->refcount = 0 */ |
....................................................................
| read_lock(&css_set_lock)
| find_existing_css_set
| get_css_set
| read_unlock(&css_set_lock);
....................................................................
__release_css_set |
....................................................................
| /* use a released css_set */
|
[put_css_set is the same. But in the current code, all put_css_set are
put into cgroup mutex critical region as the same as find_css_set.]
