  By passing the fsugid to kernfs_create_dir_ns(), we don't need
cgroup_kn_set_ugid() any longer.  That function was added for exactly
this purpose by commit 49957f8e2a ("cgroup: newly created dirs and
files should be owned by the creator").

Eliminating this piece of duplicate code means we benefit from future
improvements to kernfs_create_dir_ns(); for example, both are lacking
S_ISGID support currently, which my next patch will add to
kernfs_create_dir_ns().  It cannot (easily) be added to
cgroup_kn_set_ugid() because we can't dereference struct kernfs_iattrs
from there.

Greg, given that the two patches are related, it'd probably be less
confusing to route them together through your tree. If you want to route
them differently, please let me know.

Thanks.
