cgroup: fix spurious lockdep warning in cgroup_exit()
cgroup_exit() is called in fork and exit path. If it's called in the failure path during fork, PF_EXITING isn't set, and then lockdep will complain. Fix this by removing cgroup_exit() in that failure path. cgroup_fork() does nothing that needs cleanup.
