We can replace the tasklist_lock in cgroup_attach_proc with an
rcu_read_lock().

  * Minimize size of rcu_read_lock critical section
  * Add comment
* https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/12/26/136 (Li Zefan)
  * Split into two patches
Changes in V3:
* https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/12/22/419 (Frederic Weisbecker)
  * Add an rcu_read_lock to protect against exit
Changes in V2:
* https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/12/22/86 (Tejun Heo)
  * Use a goto instead of returning -EAGAIN
