[PATCH 2/4] cgroup: move migration destination verification out of cgroup_migrate_prepare_dst()

From: Tejun Heo
Date: Thu Mar 03 2016 - 12:20:15 EST


cgroup_migrate_prepare_dst() verifies whether the destination cgroup
is allowable; however, the test doesn't really belong there. It's too
deep and common in the stack and as a result the test itself is gated
by another test.

Separate the test out into cgroup_may_migrate_to() and update
cgroup_attach_task() and cgroup_transfer_tasks() to perform the test
directly. This doesn't cause any behavior differences.
