mm: memcontrol: fix rcu unbalance in get_non_dying_memcg_end()

Browse Source 
Currently, get_non_dying_memcg_start() and get_non_dying_memcg_end() both
evaluate cgroup_subsys_on_dfl(memory_cgrp_subsys) independently to
determine whether to acquire or release the RCU read lock.

However, the result of cgroup_subsys_on_dfl() can change dynamically at
runtime due to cgroup hierarchy rebinding (e.g., when the memory
controller is moved between cgroup v1 and v2 hierarchies).  This can cause
the following warning:

 =====================================
 WARNING: bad unlock balance detected!
 7.0.0-next-20260420+ #83 Tainted: G        W
 -------------------------------------
 memcg-repro/270 is trying to release lock (rcu_read_lock) at:
 [<ffffffff815f57f7>] rcu_read_unlock+0x17/0x60
 but there are no more locks to release!

 other info that might help us debug this:
 1 lock held by memcg-repro/270:

 ------------[ cut here ]------------

Fix this by explicitly tracking the RCU lock state, ensuring that
rcu_read_unlock() in get_non_dying_memcg_end() is strictly paired with the
lock acquisition, regardless of any runtime rebinding events.
