Then, the concern is that the cgroup may have resource usage even after ->pre_destroy() is called. We don't have any serialization between charging <-> task_move <-> rmdir(). How about taking write_lock(&mm->mmap_sem) write_unlock(&mm->mmap_sem) at moving task (->attach()) ? This will serialize task-move and charging without any realistic performance impact. If tasks cannot move, rmdir never happens. Maybe you can do this later as an optimization. So, please take this as an suggestion.
