cgroup: Move dying_tasks cleanup from cgroup_task_release() to cgroup_task_free()

Currently, cgroup_task_exit() adds thread group leaders with live member
threads to their css_set's dying_tasks list (so cgroup.procs iteration can
still see the leader), and cgroup_task_release() later removes them with
list_del_init(&task->cg_list).

An upcoming patch will defer the dying_tasks list addition, moving it from
cgroup_task_exit() (called from do_exit()) to a new function called from
finish_task_switch(). However, release_task() (which calls
cgroup_task_release()) can run either before or after finish_task_switch(),
creating a race where cgroup_task_release() might try to remove the task from
dying_tasks before or while it's being added.

Move the list_del_init() from cgroup_task_release() to cgroup_task_free() to
fix this race. cgroup_task_free() runs from __put_task_struct(), which is
always after both paths, making the cleanup safe.
