Kame,

Please test the following patch and see if it fixes your problems (I
tested locally, and it triggers me no warnings running the test script
you provided + an inbound scp -r copy of an iso directory from a remote
machine)

When you are reviewing, keep in mind that we're likely to have the same
problems with slab jump labels - since the slab pages will outlive the
cgroup as well, and it might be worthy to keep this in mind, and provide
a central point for the jump labels to be set of on cgroup destruction.
