    Revert "cgroup: Remove task_lock() from cgroup_post_fork()" · d8783832

    This reverts commit 7e3aa30a
    
    .
    
    The commit incorrectly assumed that fork path always performed
    threadgroup_change_begin/end() and depended on that for
    synchronization against task exit and cgroup migration paths instead
    of explicitly grabbing task_lock().
    
    threadgroup_change is not locked when forking a new process (as
    opposed to a new thread in the same process) and even if it were it
    wouldn't be effective as different processes use different threadgroup
    locks.
    
    Revert the incorrect optimization.
