[RFC PATCH 0/3] Rework locking when rendering mountinfo cgroup paths

[Michal Koutný]

Idea for these modification came up when css_set_lock seemed unneeded in
cgroup_show_path.
It's a delicate change, so the deciding factor was when cgroup_show_path popped
up also in some profiles of frequent mountinfo readers.
The idea is to trade the exclusive css_set_lock for the shared
namespace_sem when rendering cgroup paths. Details are described more in
individual commits.

Michal Koutný (3):
  cgroup: Drop unused function for cgroup_path
  cgroup: Rely on namespace_sem in current_cgns_cgroup_from_root
    explicitly
  cgroup: Do not take css_set_lock in cgroup_show_path
