  cgroup: Use separate src/dst nodes when preloading css_sets for migration (2022-06-16 09:37:02 -1000)

cgroup fixes for v5.19-rc6

This pull request contains the fix for an old and subtle bug in the
migration path. css_sets are used to track tasks and migrations are tasks
moving from a group of css_sets to another group of css_sets. The migration
path pins all source and destination css_sets in the prep stage.
Unfortunately, it was overloading the same list_head entry to track sources
and destinations, which got confused for migrations which are partially
identity leading to use-after-frees. Fixed by using dedicated list_heads for
tracking sources and destinations.
