Subject: [PATCH 1/6] cgroup: subsys->attach_task() should be called after migration

cgroup_attach_task() calls subsys->attach_task() after
cgroup_task_migrate(); however, cgroup_attach_proc() calls it before
migration.  This actually affects some of the users.  Update
cgroup_attach_proc() such that ->attach_task() is called after
migration.
