cgroup: make cgroup_destroy_locked() test cgroup_is_populated()
cgroup_destroy_locked() currently tests whether any css_sets are associated to reject removal if the cgroup contains tasks. This works because a css_set's refcnt converges with the number of tasks linked to it and thus there's no css_set linked to a cgroup if it doesn't have any live tasks. To help tracking resource usage of zombie tasks, putting the ref of css_set will be separated from disassociating the task from the css_set which means that a cgroup may have css_sets linked to it even when it doesn't have any live tasks. This patch updates cgroup_destroy_locked() so that it tests cgroup_is_populated(), which counts the number of populated css_sets, instead of whether cgrp->cset_links is empty to determine whether the cgroup is populated or not. This ensures that rmdirs won't be incorrectly rejected for cgroups which only contain zombie tasks. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
