cgroup: update error handling in cgroup_populate_dir()
cgroup_populate_dir() didn't use to check whether the actual file creations were successful and could return success with only subset of the requested files created, which is nasty. This patch udpates cgroup_populate_dir() so that it either succeeds with all files or fails with no file. v2: The original patch also converted for_each_root_subsys() usages to for_each_subsys() without explaining why. That part has been moved to a separate patch. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com>
