Not all external callers of cgroup_attach_task() test to

With this test in cgroup_attach_task, we can assure that
no tasks are ever moved to a cgroup that is past its
destruction point and was already marked as dead.

Isn't the test in cgroup_lock_live_group() enough?

Yes, when it is done.

Not all callers take it, specially the external ones.
