Subject: [PATCH v3 0/1] cgroup: replace global percpu_rwsem with per threadgroup resem when writing to cgroup.procs

Changes in v3:
- Expend commit log and comments.
- Put argument @tsk at end in cgroup_attach_lock/unlock.
- down_write global cgroup_thread_rwsem when flipping favordynmods to
synchronize with task between cgroup_threadgroup_change_begin and end.
- Rename group_rwsem to cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem.
- Fix bug causing abnormal cgroup migration due to threadgroup leader changes。

Changes in v2:
- Use favordynmods as the enabling switch.
- Determine whether to use the per-thread-group rwsem based on whether
the task is NULL.
- Fix system hang caused by acquiring cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem inside
rcu_read_lock.
