cgroup: notify_on_release may not be triggered in some cases
notify_on_release must be triggered when the last process in a cgroup is move to another. But if the first(and only) process in a cgroup is moved to another, notify_on_release is not triggered. # mkdir /cgroup/cpu/SRC # mkdir /cgroup/cpu/DST # # echo 1 >/cgroup/cpu/SRC/notify_on_release # echo 1 >/cgroup/cpu/DST/notify_on_release # # sleep 300 & [1] 8629 # # echo 8629 >/cgroup/cpu/SRC/tasks # echo 8629 >/cgroup/cpu/DST/tasks -> notify_on_release for /SRC must be triggered at this point, but it isn't. This is because put_css_set() is called before setting CGRP_RELEASABLE in cgroup_task_migrate(), and is a regression introduce by the commit:74a1166d(cgroups: make procs file writable), which was merged into v3.0.
