cgroup: Add memory barriers to plug cgroup_rstat_updated() race window
cgroup_rstat_updated() has a small race window where an updated signaling can race with flush and could be lost till the next update. This wasn't a problem for the existing usages, but we plan to use rstat to track counters which need to be accurate. This patch plugs the race window by synchronizing cgroup_rstat_updated() and flush path with memory barriers around cgroup_rstat_cpu->updated_next pointer. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
