kernel/sched: Fix sched_fork() access an invalid sched_task_group

Browse Source 
There is a small race between copy_process() and sched_fork()
where child->sched_task_group point to an already freed pointer.

	parent doing fork()      | someone moving the parent
				 | to another cgroup
  -------------------------------+-------------------------------
  copy_process()
      + dup_task_struct()<1>
				  parent move to another cgroup,
				  and free the old cgroup. <2>
      + sched_fork()
	+ __set_task_cpu()<3>
	+ task_fork_fair()
	  + sched_slice()<4>

In the worst case, this bug can lead to "use-after-free" and
cause panic as shown above:

  (1) parent copy its sched_task_group to child at <1>;

  (2) someone move the parent to another cgroup and free the old
      cgroup at <2>;

  (3) the sched_task_group and cfs_rq that belong to the old cgroup
      will be accessed at <3> and <4>, which cause a panic:

Between cgroup_can_fork() and cgroup_post_fork(), the cgroup
membership and thus sched_task_group can't change. So update child's
sched_task_group at sched_post_fork() and move task_fork() and
__set_task_cpu() (where accees the sched_task_group) from sched_fork()
to sched_post_fork().
