Subject: [PATCH] Documentation: cgroup v1: remove section about subsystem as a module.

This patch removes the text relating to compiling cgroup as a module,
since commit  3ed80a62bf95 ("cgroup: drop module support") makes this text not
relevant anymore.

-If a subsystem can be compiled as a module, it should also have in its

 Each subsystem may export the following methods. The only mandatory
 methods are css_alloc/free. Any others that are null are presumed to
 be successful no-ops.
