Li Zefan b629317e66 sched: Fix an RCU warning in print_task()
With CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y, a warning can be triggered:

  $ cat /proc/sched_debug

...
kernel/cgroup.c:1649 invoked rcu_dereference_check() without protection!
...

Both cgroup_path() and task_group() should be called with either
rcu_read_lock or cgroup_mutex held.

The rcu_dereference_check() does include cgroup_lock_is_held(), so we
know that this lock is not held.  Therefore, in a CONFIG_PREEMPT kernel,
to say nothing of a CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT kernel, the original code could
have ended up copying a string out of the freelist.

This patch inserts RCU read-side primitives needed to prevent this
scenario.
