From ab1de7ead871ebe6d12a774c3c25de0388cde082 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Qi Zheng zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com Date: Wed, 17 May 2023 07:45:45 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] cgroup: fix missing cpus_read_{lock,unlock}() in cgroup_transfer_tasks()

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.
