[PATCHSET for-6.1] kernfs, cgroup: implement kernfs_deactivate() and cgroup_file_show()

[Tejun Heo]

Hello,

Currently, deactivated kernfs nodes are used for two purposes - during
removal to kill and drain nodes and during creation to make multiple
kernfs_nodes creations to succeed or fail as a group.

This patchset make kernfs [de]activation generic so that it can be used
anytime to deactivate (hide and drain) and activate (show) kernfs nodes,
and, on top, implement cgroup_file_show() which allows toggling cgroup file
visiblity.

This is for the following pending patchset to allow disabling PSI on
per-cgroup basis:

 https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220808110341.15799-1-zhouchengming@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/t/#u

which requires hiding the corresponding cgroup interface files while
disabled.

This patchset contains the following seven patches.

 0001-kernfs-Simply-by-replacing-kernfs_deref_open_node-wi.patch
 0002-kernfs-Drop-unnecessary-mutex-local-variable-initial.patch
 0003-kernfs-Refactor-kernfs_get_open_node.patch
 0004-kernfs-Skip-kernfs_drain_open_files-more-aggressivel.patch
 0005-kernfs-Make-kernfs_drain-skip-draining-more-aggressi.patch
 0006-kernfs-Allow-kernfs-nodes-to-be-deactivated-and-re-a.patch
 0007-cgroup-Implement-cgroup_file_show.patch

0001-0003 are misc prep patches. 0004-0006 implement kernsf_deactivate().
0008 implements cgroup_file_show() on top. The patches are also available in
the following git branch:
