Subject: cgroup: remove obsoleted broken_hierarchy and warned_broken_hierarchy
With the deprecation of the non-hierarchical mode of the memory controller
there are no more examples of broken hierarchies left.
Let's remove the cgroup core code which was supposed to print warnings
about creating of broken hierarchies.
