cgroup: implement cgroup_is_descendant()
A couple controllers want to determine whether two cgroups are in ancestor/descendant relationship. As it's more likely that the descendant is the primary subject of interest and there are other operations focusing on the descendants, let's ask is_descendent rather than is_ancestor. Implementation is trivial as the previous patch guarantees that all ancestors of a cgroup stay accessible as long as the cgroup is accessible. tj: Removed depth optimization, renamed from cgroup_is_ancestor(), rewrote descriptions.
