sched/fair: Initialize and rework throttle_count for new task-groups
This patch is a combination of the following three patches from mainline:
094f469172e0 sched/fair: Initialize throttle_count for new task-groups lazily
Cgroup created inside throttled group must inherit current throttle_count.
Broken throttle_count allows to nominate throttled entries as a next buddy,
later this leads to null pointer dereference in pick_next_task_fair().
This patch initialize cfs_rq->throttle_count at first enqueue: laziness
allows to skip locking all rq at group creation. Lazy approach also allows
to skip full sub-tree scan at throttling hierarchy (not in this patch).
8663e24d56dc sched/fair: Reorder cgroup creation code
A future patch needs rq->lock held _after_ we link the task_group into
the hierarchy. In order to avoid taking every rq->lock twice, reorder
things a little and create online_fair_sched_group() to be called
after we link the task_group.
All this code is still ran from css_alloc() so css_online() isn't in
fact used for this.
55e16d30bd99 sched/fair: Rework throttle_count sync
Since we already take rq->lock when creating a cgroup, use it to also
sync the throttle_count and avoid the extra state and enqueue path
branch.

The patches have been combined because applying them separately will
cause a KABI breakage and introduce a dummy function.
