cgroup: fix RCU accesses around task->cgroups
There are several places in kernel/cgroup.c where task->cgroups is
accessed and modified without going through proper RCU accessors.
None is broken as they're all lock protected accesses; however, this
still triggers sparse RCU address space warnings.

* Consistently use task_css_set() for task->cgroups dereferencing.

* Use RCU_INIT_POINTER() to clear task->cgroups to &init_css_set on
  exit.

* Remove unnecessary rcu_dereference_raw() from cset->subsys[]
  dereference in cgroup_exit().
