cgroup: Restructure release_agent_path handling
cgrp->root->release_agent_path is protected by both cgroup_mutex and release_agent_path_lock and readers can hold either one. The dual-locking scheme was introduced while breaking a locking dependency issue around cgroup_mutex but doesn't make sense anymore given that the only remaining reader which uses cgroup_mutex is cgroup1_releaes_agent(). This patch updates cgroup1_release_agent() to use release_agent_path_lock so that release_agent_path is always protected only by release_agent_path_lock. While at it, convert strlen() based empty string checks to direct tests on the first character as suggested by Linus.
