[PATCH] cgroup: fix cgroup_path() vs rename() race

[Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com>]

rename() will change dentry->d_name. The result of this race can
be worse than seeing partially rewritten name, but we might access
a stale pointer because rename() will re-allocate memory to hold
a longer name.

Use dentry_path_raw(), and this vfs API will take care of lockings.
