This straw appears true:

So cgroup moves a task without calling cgroup_subsys::attach() which is
odd, but it does have an ::exit method, sadly it calls that _before_
re-assigning the task, which means we have to jump through some hoops.
The below seems to fix the problem for me..
---
Subject: sched, cgroup: Use exit hook to avoid use-after-free crash
By not notifying the controller of the on-exit move back to
init_css_set, we fail to move the task out of the previous cgroup's
cfs_rq. This leads to an opportunity for a cgroup-destroy to come in and
free the cgroup (there are no active tasks left in it after all) to
which the not-quite dead task is still enqueued.
