[PATCH 1/4] cgroup: Honor caller's cgroup NS when resolving path

[Michal Koutný]

cgroup_get_from_path() is not widely used function. Its callers presume
the path is resolved under cgroup namespace. (There is one caller
currently and resolving in init NS won't make harm (netfilter). However,
future users may be subject to different effects when resolving
globally.)
Since, there's currently no use for the global resolution, modify the
existing function to take cgroup NS into account.
