Subject: [PATCH 1/3] cgroup: implement CFTYPE_NO_PREFIX

When cgroup files are created, cgroup core automatically prepends the
name of the subsystem as prefix.  This patch adds CFTYPE_NO_PREFIX
which disables the automatic prefix.

This will be used to deprecate cpuacct which will make cpu create and
serve the cpuacct files.
