Subject[PATCH 1/2] cpuset: fix RCU lockdep splat
Reading /proc/<pid>/cpuset triggered RCU warning, and this bug was
introduced by Commit 5d21cc2db040d01f8c19b8602f6987813e1176b4
("cpuset: replace cgroup_mutex locking with cpuset internal locking")

Here we can retreive tsk->cgroups and call cgroup_path() inside RCU
read section.
