cgroup: Remove task_lock() from cgroup_post_fork()
cgroup_post_fork() is protected between threadgroup_change_begin() and threadgroup_change_end() against concurrent changes of the child's css_set in cgroup_task_migrate(). Also the child can't exit and call cgroup_exit() at this stage, this means it's css_set can't be changed with init_css_set concurrently. For these reasons, we don't need to hold task_lock() on the child because it's css_set can only remain stable in this place. Let's remove the lock there. v2: Update comment to explain that we are safe against cgroup_exit() Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Acked-by: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Containers <containers@lists.linux-foundation.org> Cc: Cgroups <cgroups@vger.kernel.org> Cc: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Paul Menage <paul@paulmenage.org> Cc: Mandeep Singh Baines <msb@chromium.org>
