[PATCH 1/5 V3] cgroup: remove redundate get/put of old css_set from migrate

[Mandeep Singh Baines]

Changes in V3:
* Fixed to put error in retval (thanks Frederic Weisbecker)
  * https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/12/20/255
Changes in V2:
* Updated commit message as per Tejun's feedback:
  * https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/12/19/289

-- >8 -- (snip)

We can now assume that the css_set reference held by the task
will not go away for an exiting task. PF_EXITING state can be
trusted throughout migration by checking it after locking
threadgroup.

While at it, renamed css_set_check_fetched to css_set_fetched.
!css_set_fetched() seems to read better than
!css_set_check_fetched().
