If a task has exited to the point it has called cgroup_exit() already,
then we can't migrate it to another cgroup anymore.

This can happen when we are attaching a task to a new cgroup between the
call to ->can_attach_task() on subsystems and the migration that is
eventually tried in cgroup_task_migrate().

In this case cgroup_task_migrate() returns -ESRCH and we don't want to
attach the task to the subsystems because the attachment to the new cgroup
itself failed.

Fix this by only calling ->attach_task() on the subsystems if the cgroup
migration succeeded.
