Li has pointed out that my previous backport was not correct because
err_unlock label releases a reference to supperblock which was not taken
before idr_alloc. I've also removed cgroup_mutex from free_css_id as per
Li.
Fixed in this version.

Subject: [PATCH - for 3.12] cgroup: protect modifications to cgroup_idr with cgroup_mutex
Setup cgroupfs like this:
# mount -t cgroup -o cpuacct xxx /cgroup
# mkdir /cgroup/sub1
# mkdir /cgroup/sub2
Then run these two commands:
# for ((; ;)) { mkdir /cgroup/sub1/tmp && rmdir /mnt/sub1/tmp; } &
# for ((; ;)) { mkdir /cgroup/sub2/tmp && rmdir /mnt/sub2/tmp; } &
After seconds you may see this warning:
------------[ cut here ]------------

It's because allocating/removing cgroup ID is not properly synchronized.
The bug was introduced when we converted cgroup_ida to cgroup_idr.
While synchronization is already done inside ida_simple_{get,remove}(),
users are responsible for concurrent calls to idr_{alloc,remove}().
[mhocko@suse.cz: ported to 3.12]
