I think I'd prefer the approach where any necessary css_ids are
allocated prior to calling any create methods (which gives the
additional advantage of removing the need to roll back partial
creation of a cgroup in the event of alloc_css_id() failing) and then
passed in to the create() method. The main cgroups framework would
still be responsible for actually filling the css->id field with the
allocated id.
