We can remove this lock here, since we are in cgroup write handler
and thus the cgrp is guaranteed to be valid, and no lock is needed
when writing a u32 variable.

There's no guarantee that the group isn't dead, so we could be writing
into a value that's never going to be used again, but I guess that's
not really a big deal.
