cgroup: fix the async css offline wait logic in cgroup_subtree_control_write()



When a subsystem is offlined, its entry on @cgrp->subsys[] is cleared
asynchronously.  If cgroup_subtree_control_write() is requested to
enable the subsystem again before the entry is cleared, it has to wait
for the previous offlining to finish and clear the @cgrp->subsys[]
entry before trying to enable the subsystem again.

This is currently done while verifying the input enable / disable
parameters.  This used to be correct but f63070d3 ("cgroup: make
interface files visible iff enabled on cgroup->subtree_control")
breaks it.  The commit is one of the commits implementing subsystem
dependency.

Through subsystem dependency, some subsystems may be enabled and
disabled implicitly in addition to the explicitly requested ones.  The
actual subsystems to be enabled and disabled are determined during
@css_enable/disable calculation.  The current offline wait logic skips
the ones which are already implicitly enabled and then waits for
subsystems in @enable; however, this misses the subsystems which may
be implicitly enabled through dependency from @enable.  If such
implicitly subsystem hasn't yet finished offlining yet, the function
ends up trying to create a css when its @cgrp->subsys[] slot is
already occupied triggering BUG_ON() in init_and_link_css().

Fix it by moving the wait logic after @css_enable is calculated and
waiting for all the subsystems in @css_enable.  This fixes the above
bug as the mask contains all subsystems which are to be enabled
including the ones enabled through dependencies.
