From: Qi Zheng <zhengqi.arch@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The commit 4f7e7236435c ("cgroup: Fix threadgroup_rwsem <-> cpus_read_lock()
deadlock") fixed the deadlock between cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem and
cpus_read_lock() by introducing cgroup_attach_{lock,unlock}() and removing
cpus_read_{lock,unlock}() from cpuset_attach(). But cgroup_transfer_tasks()
was missed and not handled, which will cause th following warning:

So just use the cgroup_attach_{lock,unlock}() helper to fix it.
