cgroup: remove hierarchy_mutex
It was introduced for memcg to iterate cgroup hierarchy without holding cgroup_mutex, but soon after that it was replaced with a lockless way in memcg. No one used hierarchy_mutex since that, so remove it. Signed-off-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
