[PATCH 4/5 cgroup/for-6.16-fixes] cgroup: initialize css rstat before linking to cgroups in css_create()

[JP Kobryn]

Calling css_rstat_init() after linking the css with its cgroup (and parent
cgroup) leaves the code vulnerable to async cleanup where css_rstat_exit()
is invoked on a fully initialized css. Avoid this by calling
css_rstat_init() before linking. The error can then be handled inline with
no async cleanup requirement.
