cgroup: enable refcnting for root csses
Currently, css_get(), css_tryget() and css_tryget_online() are noops for root csses as an optimization; however, we're planning to use css refcnts to track of cgroup lifetime too and root cgroups also need to be reference counted. Since css has been converted to percpu_refcnt, the overhead of refcnting is miniscule and this optimization isn't too meaningful anymore. Furthermore, controllers which optimize the root cgroup often never even invoke these functions in their hot paths. This patch enables refcnting for root csses too. This makes CSS_ROOT flag unused and removes it. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com>
