cgroup: fix race condition around termination check in css_task_iter_next()

Browse Source 
css_task_iter_next() checked @it->cur_task before grabbing
css_set_lock and assumed that the result won't change afterwards;
however, tasks could leave the cgroup being iterated terminating the
iterator before css_task_lock is acquired.  If this happens,
css_task_iter_next() tries to calculate the current task from NULL
cg_list pointer leading to the following oops.

Fix it by moving the termination condition check inside css_set_lock.
@it->cur_task is now cleared after being put and @it->task_pos is
tested for termination instead of @it->cset_pos as they indicate the
same condition and @it->task_pos is what's being dereferenced.
