Anjana V Kumar 5be794dc4b cgroup: fix to break the while loop in cgroup_attach_task() correctly 
commit ea84753c98 upstream.

Both Anjana and Eunki reported a stall in the while_each_thread loop
in cgroup_attach_task().

It's because, when we attach a single thread to a cgroup, if the cgroup
is exiting or is already in that cgroup, we won't break the loop.

If the task is already in the cgroup, the bug can lead to another thread
being attached to the cgroup unexpectedly:

  # echo 5207 > tasks
  # cat tasks
  5207
  # echo 5207 > tasks
  # cat tasks
  5207
  5215

What's worse, if the task to be attached isn't the leader of the thread
group, we might never exit the loop, hence cpu stall. Thanks for Oleg's
analysis.

This bug was introduced by commit 081aa458c3
("cgroup: consolidate cgroup_attach_task() and cgroup_attach_proc()")

[ lizf: - fixed the first continue, pointed out by Oleg,
        - rewrote changelog. ]
