Subject: [PATCH] cgroup: don't queue css_release_work if one already pending

Syzbot found a corrupted list bug scenario that can be triggered from
cgroup css_create(). The reproduces writes to cgroup.subtree_control
file, which invokes cgroup_apply_control_enable(), css_create(), and
css_populate_dir(), which then randomly fails with a fault injected -ENOMEM.
In such scenario the css_create() error path rcu enqueues css_free_rwork_fn
work for an css->refcnt initialized with css_release() destructor,
and there is a chance that the css_release() function will be invoked
for a cgroup_subsys_state, for which a destroy_work has already been
queued via css_create() error path. This causes a list_add corruption
as can be seen in the syzkaller report [1].
This can be avoided by adding a check to css_release() that checks
if it has already been enqueued.
