Subject: [ 072/123] cgroup_rm_file: dont delete the uncreated files

3.7-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Gao feng <gaofeng@...fujitsu.com>

commit f33fddc2b9573d8359f1007d4bbe5cd587a0c093 upstream.

in cgroup_add_file,when creating files for cgroup,
some of creation may be skipped. So we need to avoid
deleting these uncreated files in cgroup_rm_file,
otherwise the warning msg will be triggered.

"cgroup_addrm_files: failed to remove memory_pressure_enabled, err=-2"
