[ Upstream commit 74e4b956eb1cac0e4c10c240339b1bbfbc9a4c48 ]
cgroup_get_from_path() is not widely used function. Its callers presume
the path is resolved under cgroup namespace. (There is one caller
currently and resolving in init NS won't make harm (netfilter). However,
future users may be subject to different effects when resolving
globally.)
Since, there's currently no use for the global resolution, modify the
existing function to take cgroup NS into account.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
