    cgroup: fix broken file xattrs · 712317ad
    Li Zefan authored
    We should store file xattrs in struct cfent instead of struct cftype,
    because cftype is a type while cfent is object instance of cftype.
    
    For example each cgroup has a tasks file, and each tasks file is
    associated with a uniq cfent, but all those files share the same
    struct cftype.
    
    Alexey Kodanev reported a crash, which can be reproduced:
    
      # mount -t cgroup -o xattr /sys/fs/cgroup
      # mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test
      # setfattr -n trusted.value -v test_value /sys/fs/cgroup/tasks
      # rmdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test
      # umount /sys/fs/cgroup
      oops!
    
    In this case, simple_xattrs_free() will free the same struct simple_xattrs
    twice.
    
    tj: Dropped unused local variable @cft from cgroup_diput().
