cgroup: Keep accurate count of tasks in each css_set
The reference count in the css_set data structure was used as a proxy of the number of tasks attached to that css_set. However, that count is actually not an accurate measure especially with thread mode support. So a new variable nr_tasks is added to the css_set to keep track of the actual task count. This new variable is protected by the css_set_lock. Functions that require the actual task count are updated to use the new variable. tj: s/task_count/nr_tasks/ for consistency with cgroup_root->nr_cgrps. Refreshed on top of cgroup/for-v4.13 which dropped on css_set_populated() -> nr_tasks conversion. Signed-off-by: Waiman Long <longman@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
