cgroup: remove cgroup->name
cgroup->name handling became quite complicated over time involving dedicated struct cgroup_name for RCU protection. Now that cgroup is on kernfs, we can drop all of it and simply use kernfs_name/path() and friends. Replace cgroup->name and all related code with kernfs name/path constructs. * Reimplement cgroup_name() and cgroup_path() as thin wrappers on top of kernfs counterparts, which involves semantic changes. pr_cont_cgroup_name() and pr_cont_cgroup_path() added. * cgroup->name handling dropped from cgroup_rename(). * All users of cgroup_name/path() updated to the new semantics. Users which were formatting the string just to printk them are converted to use pr_cont_cgroup_name/path() instead, which simplifies things quite a bit. As cgroup_name() no longer requires RCU read lock around it, RCU lockings which were protecting only cgroup_name() are removed. v2: Comment above oom_info_lock updated as suggested by Michal. v3: dummy_top doesn't have a kn associated and pr_cont_cgroup_name/path() ended up calling the matching kernfs functions with NULL kn leading to oops. Test for NULL kn and print "/" if so. This issue was reported by Fengguang Wu. v4: Rebased on top of 0ab02ca8f887 ("cgroup: protect modifications to cgroup_idr with cgroup_mutex").
