cgroup: saner refcounting for cgroup_root



* make the reference from superblock to cgroup_root counting -
do cgroup_put() in cgroup_kill_sb() whether we'd done
percpu_ref_kill() or not; matching grab is done when we allocate
a new root.  That gives the same refcounting rules for all callers
of cgroup_do_mount() - a reference to cgroup_root has been grabbed
by caller and it either is transferred to new superblock or dropped.

* have cgroup_kill_sb() treat an already killed refcount as "just
don't bother killing it, then".

* after successful cgroup_do_mount() have cgroup1_mount() recheck
if we'd raced with mount/umount from somebody else and cgroup_root
got killed.  In that case we drop the superblock and bugger off
with -ERESTARTSYS, same as if we'd found it in the list already
dying.

* don't bother with delayed initialization of refcount - it's
unreliable and not needed.  No need to prevent attempts to bump
the refcount if we find cgroup_root of another mount in progress -
sget will reuse an existing superblock just fine and if the
other sb manages to die before we get there, we'll catch
that immediately after cgroup_do_mount().

* don't bother with kernfs_pin_sb() - no need for doing that
either.
