      cgroup: make sure that decisions in __css_put are atomic · 967db0ea
      Salman Qazi authored
      __css_put is using atomic_dec on the ref count, and then
      looking at the ref count to make decisions.  This is prone
      to races, as someone else may decrement ref count between
      our decrement and our decision.  Instead, we should base our
      decisions on the value that we decremented the ref count to.
      
      (This results in an actual race on Google's kernel which I
      haven't been able to reproduce on the upstream kernel.  Having
      said that, it's still incorrect by inspection).
