Yeap, they're supposed to be the same operations. We've never clearly
defined how the accounting gets split across moves because 1. it's
inherently blurry and difficult 2. doesn't make any practical difference for
the recommended and vast majority usage pattern which uses migration to seed
the new cgroup. CLONE_INTO_CGROUP doesn't change any of that.

If the man page is documenting that, it's wrong. cgroup_css_set_fork() has
an explicit cgroup_may_write() test on the destination cgroup.
CLONE_INTO_CGROUP should follow exactly the same rules as regular
migrations.

Thanks.
