Oops, one more thing.

This will allow lookups to return half-initialized cgroup, which
shouldn't happen.  Either idr_alloc() should be moved to after
initialization of other fields are finished, or it should be called
with NULL @ptr with idr_replace() added at the end to install @cgrp.

Similarly, the removal path should guarantee that the object is
removed from idr *before* its grace period starts.

Thanks.
