cgroups: read-write lock CLONE_THREAD forking per threadgroup
Adds functionality to read/write lock CLONE_THREAD fork()ing per-threadgroup
Add an rwsem that lives in a threadgroup's signal_struct that's taken for
reading in the fork path, under CONFIG_CGROUPS. If another part of the
kernel later wants to use such a locking mechanism, the CONFIG_CGROUPS
ifdefs should be changed to a higher-up flag that CGROUPS and the other
system would both depend on.
This is a pre-patch for cgroup-procs-write.patch.
