cgroup: always put cset in cgroup_css_set_put_fork

Browse Source 
A successful call to cgroup_css_set_fork() will always have taken
a ref on kargs->cset (regardless of CLONE_INTO_CGROUP), so always
do a corresponding put in cgroup_css_set_put_fork().

Without this, a cset and its contained css structures will be
leaked for some fork failures.  The following script reproduces
the leak for a fork failure due to exceeding pids.max in the
pids controller.  A similar thing can happen if we jump to the
bad_fork_cancel_cgroup label in copy_process().

[ -z "$1" ] && echo "Usage $0 pids-root" && exit 1
PID_ROOT=$1
CGROUP=$PID_ROOT/foo

[ -e $CGROUP ] && rmdir -f $CGROUP
mkdir $CGROUP
echo 5 > $CGROUP/pids.max
echo $$ > $CGROUP/cgroup.procs

fork_bomb()
{
	set -e
	for i in $(seq 10); do
		/bin/sleep 3600 &
	done
}

(fork_bomb) &
wait
echo $$ > $PID_ROOT/cgroup.procs
kill $(cat $CGROUP/cgroup.procs)
rmdir $CGROUP
