cgroup: remove cgroup_lock_is_held()
We don't want controllers to assume that the information is officially available and do funky things with it. The only user is task_subsys_state_check() which uses it to verify RCU access context. We can move cgroup_lock_is_held() inside CONFIG_PROVE_RCU but that doesn't add meaningful protection compared to conditionally exposing cgroup_mutex. Remove cgroup_lock_is_held(), export cgroup_mutex iff CONFIG_PROVE_RCU and use lockdep_is_held() directly on the mutex in task_subsys_state_check(). While at it, add parentheses around macro arguments in task_subsys_state_check(). Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com>
