You are not handling task migration between groups, i.e.:
	# echo $$ > /cgroup/1/tasks
	# echo $$ > /cgroup/2/tasks

Maybe you need to add this in cgroup_init_subsys():

-       need_forkexit_callback |= ss->fork || ss->exit;
+       need_forkexit_callback |= ss->fork || ss->exit || ss->can_fork;

and then we can do:

if (need_forkexit_callback) {
	for (i = 0; i < CGROUP_SUBSYS_COUNT; i++) {
		...
	}
}
