Shakeel Butt 4ef420b345 cgroup: replace global cgroup_file_kn_lock with per-cgroup_file lock
Replace the global cgroup_file_kn_lock with a per-cgroup_file spinlock
to eliminate cross-cgroup contention as it is not really protecting
data shared between different cgroups.

The lock is initialized in cgroup_add_file() alongside timer_setup().
No lock acquisition is needed during initialization since the cgroup
directory is being populated under cgroup_mutex and no concurrent
accessors exist at that point.
