Linus Torvalds 9f8413c4a6 cgroup: Changes for v6.8

- Yafang Shao added task_get_cgroup1() helper to enable a similar BPF helper
   so that BPF progs can be more useful on cgroup1 hierarchies. While cgroup1
   is mostly in maintenance mode, this addition is very small while having an
   outsized usefulness for users who are still on cgroup1. Yafang also
   optimized root cgroup list access by making it RCU protected in the
   process.
 
 - Waiman Long optimized rstat operation leading to substantially lower and
   more consistent lock hold time while flushing the hierarchical statistics.
   As the lock can be acquired briefly in various hot paths, this reduction
   has cascading benefits.
 
 - Waiman also improved the quality of isolation for cpuset's isolated
   partitions. CPUs which are allocated to isolated partitions are now
   excluded from running unbound work items and cpu_is_isolated() test which
   is used by vmstat and memcg to reduce interference now includes cpuset
   isolated CPUs. While it isn't there yet, the hope is eventually reaching
   parity with the isolation level provided by the `isolcpus` boot param but
   in a dynamic manner.
 
   This involved a couple workqueue patches which were applied directly to
   cgroup/for-6.8 rather than ping-ponged through the wq tree. This was
   because the wq code change was small and the area is usually very static
   and unlikely to cause conflicts. However, luck had it that there was a wq
   bug fix in the area during the 6.7 cycle which caused a conflict. The
   conflict is contextual but can be a bit confusing to resolve, so there is
   one merge from wq/for-6.7-fixes.
