3.15 regression: wrong cgroup magic

Sorry I didn't notice this earlier. Linux 3.15 breaks my production
system :( The cause appears to be:

commit 2bd59d48ebfb3df41ee56938946ca0dd30887312

cgroup: convert to kernfs

In particular, this piece:

- sb->s_magic = CGROUP_SUPER_MAGIC;

The result is that cgroup shows up with the wrong magic number, so my
code goes "oh crap, cgroupfs isn't mounted" and fails.

I can change my code to hack around this, but I can imagine other
things getting tripped up. Is there still time to fix this?
