[PATCH cgroup/for-3.11] cgroup: disallow cpuacct if sane_behavior

[Tejun Heo]

cpuacct causes duplicate accountings on the scheduler and cpu will
provide equivalent stats.  Optimizations for cases where cpu and
cpuacct are co-mounted are being worked on but we want to deprecate it
eventually.  Let's disallow cpuacct if __DEVEL__sane_behavior.
