css_id() should be called under rcu_read_lock().
Following is a report from Li Zefan.

===================================================
[ INFO: suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage. ]
---------------------------------------------------
kernel/cgroup.c:4438 invoked rcu_dereference_check() without protection!

other info that might help us debug this:


rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 1
