When we migrate a task between two cgroups, one of the checks is a verification whether we can modify task's scheduler settings (cap_task_setscheduler()).

An implicit migration occurs also when enabling a controller on the unified hierarchy (think of parent to child migration). The aforementioned check may be problematic if the caller of the migration (enabling a controller) has no permissions over migrated tasks. For instance, a user's cgroup that ends up running a process of a different user. Although cgroup permissions are configured favorably, the enablement fails due to the foreign process [1].

Change the behavior by relaxing the permissions check on the unified hierarchy (or in v2 mode). This is in accordance with unified hierarchy attachment behavior when permissions of the source to target cgroups are decisive whereas the migrated task is opaque (as opposed to more restrictive check in __cgroup1_procs_write()).

Add a separate testfile to verify treating permissions when tasks are migrated on cgroup v2 hierarchy between cpuset cgroups.

In accordance with v2 design, migration should be allowed based on delegation boundaries (i.e. cgroup.procs permissions) and does not depend on the migrated object (i.e. unprivileged process can migrate another process (even privileged) as long as it remains in the original dedicated scope).
