cgroup: Fix an RCU warning in alloc_css_id()
With CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y, a warning can be triggered:
# mount -t cgroup -o memory xxx /mnt
# mkdir /mnt/0
...
kernel/cgroup.c:4442 invoked rcu_dereference_check() without protection!
...
This is a false-positive. It's safe to directly access parent_css->id.
