So, css ID can't replace cgroup ID as whole. It's just that there are
cases where we're currently using cgroup IDs where we should be using
css IDs. Also, we need to update css creation error path RCU safe so
that idr lookup is always RCU safe. I already had patches queued for
posting. Will post them soon.

Thanks.
