Could it be that you misread cgroup_attach_permissions()? Because it
does check for write permissions on the destination cgroup.procs file.
That's why I've added the cgroup_get_from_file() helper. :) See:

static int cgroup_attach_permissions(struct cgroup *src_cgrp,
				     struct cgroup *dst_cgrp,
				     struct super_block *sb, bool thread)
{
	int ret = 0;

	ret = cgroup_procs_write_permission(src_cgrp, dst_cgrp, sb);
	if (ret)
		return ret;

	ret = cgroup_migrate_vet_dst(dst_cgrp);
	if (ret)
		return ret;

	if (thread &&
	    !cgroup_same_domain(src_cgrp->dom_cgrp, dst_cgrp->dom_cgrp))
		ret = -EOPNOTSUPP;

	return ret;
}

Maybe I'm misunderstanding though. :)

Thanks!
