There are several places in kernel/cgroup.c where task->cgroups is accessed and modified without going through proper RCU accessors. None is broken as they're all lock protected accesses; however, this still triggers sparse RCU address space warnings. * Consistently use task_css_set() for task->cgroups dereferencing. * Use RCU_INIT_POINTER() to clear task->cgroups to &init_css_set on exit. * Remove unnecessary rcu_dereference_raw() from cset->subsys[] dereference in cgroup_exit().
