During prep, cgroup_setup_root() allocates cgrp_cset_links matching the number of existing css_sets to later link the new root. This is fine for now as the only operation which can happen inbetween is rebind_subsystems() and rebinding of empty subsystems doesn't create new css_sets. However, while not yet allowed, with the recent reimplementation, rebind_subsystems() can rebind subsystems with descendant csses and thus can create new css_sets. This patch makes cgroup_setup_root() allocate 2x of the existing css_sets so that later use of live subsystem rebinding doesn't blow up.
