[Devel] [PATCH RH8] ve/cgroup: remove rcu_read_lock from cgroup_get_ve_root

[Evgenii Shatokhin]

From: Pavel Tikhomirov <ptikhomirov at virtuozzo.com>

It is likely a leftover from __cgroup_path where it protects cgrp->name
in cgroup_get_ve_root there is nothing rcu_dereferenced, also in
cgroup_is_descendant there is no rcu for cgrp->parent.

eshatokhin@:
It seems, the actual fix for PSBM-69678  was ported to VZ8 as a part of
90c47968843b3 "ve/cgroups: Introduce subgroups_limit control"
and
90368f957e01b "ve/sched/stat: Introduce functions to calculate vcpustat data".

Only "f8168436b4eb ve/cgroup: remove rcu_read_lock from cgroup_get_ve_root"
was skipped, so here it is.

cgroup_get_ve_root1() does not dereference RCU-protected pointers,
cgroup_parent() does not do that do that either, so rcu_read_lock/unlock
are not needed.

Done in the scope of https://jira.sw.ru/browse/PSBM-127794.
