Hi Tvrtko, I think this lock needs to come after the return for the
online check just below here to avoid missing the rcu_read_unlock at
out_retry. Although it doesn't look like this should ever run in the
first place if the DRM controller is disabled.

And I think also if a user has permission to create and migrate
processes between cgroups even just under the same parent, since
