cgroup: make cgroup_addrm_files() clean up after itself on failures After a file creation failure, cgroup_addrm_files() it didn't remove the files which had already been created. When cgroup_populate_dir() is the caller, this is fine as the caller performs cleanup; however, for other callers, this may leave unactivated dangling files behind. As kernfs directory removals are recursive, this doesn't lead to permanent memory leak but it can, for example, fail future attempts to create those files again. There's no point in keeping around this sort of subtlety and it gets in the way of planned updates to file handling. This patch makes cgroup_addrm_files() clean up after itself on failures.
