Subject: [PATCH 2/2] cgroup: Avoid extra dereference in css_populate_dir()

Use css directly instead of dereferencing it from &cgroup->self, while
adding the cgroup v2 cft base and psi files in css_populate_dir(). Both
points to the same css, when css->ss is NULL, this avoids extra deferences
and makes code consistent in usage across the function.
