Subject: [PATCH] rcu: Make task_subsys_state() RCU-lockdep checks handle
 boot-time use

It is apparently legal to invoke task_subsys_state() without RCU
protection during early boot time.  After all, there are no
concurrent tasks, so there can be no grace periods completing
concurrently.

But this does need an Acked-by from the cgroups folks.
