cgroup: avoid null de-ref in css_rstat_exit()

commit eea51c6e3f6675b795f6439eaa960eb2948d6905 upstream.

css_rstat_exit() may be called asynchronously in scenarios where preceding
calls to css_rstat_init() have not completed. One such example is this
sequence below:

css_create(...)
{
	...
	init_and_link_css(css, ...);

	err = percpu_ref_init(...);
	if (err)
		goto err_free_css;
	err = cgroup_idr_alloc(...);
	if (err)
		goto err_free_css;
	err = css_rstat_init(css, ...);
	if (err)
		goto err_free_css;
	...
err_free_css:
	INIT_RCU_WORK(&css->destroy_rwork, css_free_rwork_fn);
	queue_rcu_work(cgroup_destroy_wq, &css->destroy_rwork);
	return ERR_PTR(err);
}

If any of the three goto jumps are taken, async cleanup will begin and
css_rstat_exit() will be invoked on an uninitialized css->rstat_cpu.

Avoid accessing the unitialized field by returning early in
css_rstat_exit() if this is the case.
