cgroup: use an ordered workqueue for cgroup destruction
Sometimes the cleanup after memcg hierarchy testing gets stuck in
mem_cgroup_reparent_charges(), unable to bring non-kmem usage down to 0.
There may turn out to be several causes, but a major cause is this: the
workitem to offline parent can get run before workitem to offline child;
parent's mem_cgroup_reparent_charges() circles around waiting for the
child's pages to be reparented to its lrus, but it's holding cgroup_mutex
which prevents the child from reaching its mem_cgroup_reparent_charges().
Just use an ordered workqueue for cgroup_destroy_wq.
tj: Committing as the temporary fix until the reverse dependency can
be removed from memcg. Comment updated accordingly.
