I prefer to yield the mutex as early as possible.

cgroup_post_fork() is called past the point of no return for fork and
cgroup_css_set_put_fork() is explicitly documented as only being
callable before forks point of no return:

 * Drop references to the prepared css_set and target cgroup if
 * CLONE_INTO_CGROUP was requested. This function can only be
 * called before fork()'s point of no return.

This should be:

if (kargs->flags & CLONE_NEWCGROUP) {
	struct css_set *rcset = child->nsproxy->cgroup_ns->root_cset;

	get_css_set(cset);
	child->nsproxy->cgroup_ns->root_cset = cset;
	put_css_set(rcset);
}

Thanks!
