cgroup: update locking in cgroup_show_options()
cgroup_show_options() grabs cgroup_root_mutex to protect the options changing while printing; however, holding root_mutex or not doesn't really make much difference for the function. subsys_mask can be atomically tested and most of the options aren't allowed to change anyway once mounted. The only field which needs synchronization is ->release_agent_path. This patch introduces a dedicated spinlock to synchronize accesses to the field and drops cgroup_root_mutex locking from cgroup_show_options(). The next patch will remove cgroup_root_mutex.
