We should not call cgroup_unload_subsys() if online_css() fails, because online_css() does not assign css to cgroup on failure, while offline_css() called from cgroup_unload_subsys() expects it is assigned. So let's call everything we need to rollback inline without involving cgroup_unload_subsys().
