Subject: cgroup: introduce cancel_attach()
From: Daisuke Nishimura <nishimura@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Add cancel_attach() operation to struct cgroup_subsys.  cancel_attach()
can be used when can_attach() operation prepares something for the subsys,
but we should rollback what can_attach() operation has prepared if attach
task fails after we've succeeded in can_attach().
