mm: don't hold css->refcnt during traversal
To obtain the pointer to the next memcg position, mem_cgroup_iter()
currently holds css->refcnt during memcg traversal only to put css->refcnt
at the end of the routine. This isn't necessary as an rcu_read_lock is
already held throughout the function. The use of the RCU read lock with
css_next_descendant_pre() guarantees that sibling linkage is safe without
holding a ref on the passed-in @css.
Remove css->refcnt usage during traversal by leveraging RCU.
