cgroups: use flex_array in attach_proc
Convert cgroup_attach_proc to use flex_array.

The cgroup_attach_proc implementation requires a pre-allocated array to
store task pointers to atomically move a thread-group, but asking for a
monolithic array with kmalloc() may be unreliable for very large groups.
Using flex_array provides the same functionality with less risk of
failure.

This is a post-patch for cgroup-procs-write.patch.
