[GIT PULL] cgroup fix for v5.6-rc1

From: Tejun Heo
Date: Mon Feb 10 2020 - 17:55:16 EST


Hello, Linus.

I made a mistake while removing cgroup task list lazy init
optimization making the root cgroup.procs show entries for the
init_tasks. The 0 entries doesn't cause critical failures but does
make systemd print out warning messages during boot. Fix it by
omitting init_tasks as they should be.

Thanks.
