cgroup: remove cgroup_root_mutex

cgroup_root_mutex was added to avoid deadlock involving namespace_sem
via cgroup_show_options().  It added a lot of overhead for the small
purpose of it and, because it's nested under cgroup_mutex, it has very
limited usefulness.  The previous patch made cgroup_show_options() not
use cgroup_root_mutex, so nobody needs it anymore.  Remove it.

/*
* cgroup_mutex is the master lock. Any modification to cgroup or its
* hierarchy must be performed while holding it.
*
* cgroup_root_mutex nests inside cgroup_mutex and should be held to modify
* cgroupfs_root of any cgroup hierarchy - subsys list, flags,
* release_agent_path and so on. Modifying requires both cgroup_mutex and
* cgroup_root_mutex. Readers can acquire either of the two. This is to
* break the following locking order cycle.
*
* A. cgroup_mutex -> cred_guard_mutex -> s_type->i_mutex_key -> namespace_sem
* B. namespace_sem -> cgroup_mutex
*
* B happens only through cgroup_show_options() and using cgroup_root_mutex
* breaks it.
