[Devel] [PATCH 6/6] Makes procs file writable to move all threads by tgid at once

Makes procs file writable to move all threads by tgid at once

This patch adds functionality that enables users to move all threads in a
threadgroup at once to a cgroup by writing the tgid to the 'cgroup.procs'
file. This current implementation makes use of a per-threadgroup rwsem that's
taken for reading in the fork() path to prevent newly forking threads within
the threadgroup from "escaping" while the move is in progress.

There is a gap between releasing the fork_mutex and calling each subsystem's
attach function, which could possibly lead to problems if the subsystem relies
on something that could change in the meantime as caused by forking threads.
No particular issue seems apparent, but were some subsystem to have a problem
here, the per-threadgroup fork mutex could be held longer until after the
attach calls are done.

+The cgroup.procs file is useful for managing all tasks in a threadgroup at

+threadgroup with the specified tgid.

+Writing the pid of a task that's not the threadgroup leader (i.e., a pid
