The commit 74e4b956eb1c incorrectly wrapped kernfs_walk_and_get
(might_sleep) under css_set_lock (spinlock). css_set_lock is needed by
__cset_cgroup_from_root to ensure stable cset->cgrp_links but not for
kernfs_walk_and_get.
We only need to make sure that the returned root_cgrp won't be freed
under us. This is given in the case of global root because it is static
(cgrp_dfl_root.cgrp). When the root_cgrp is lower in the hierarchy, it
is pinned by cgroup_ns->root_cset (and `current` task cannot switch
namespace asynchronously so ns_proxy pins cgroup_ns).
Note this reasoning won't hold for root cgroups in v1 hierarchies,
therefore create a special-cased helper function just for the default
hierarchy.
Fixes: 74e4b956eb1c ("cgroup: Honor caller's cgroup NS when resolving path")
