I haven't seen warnings with this patch. rcu_read_lock_held() is
checked inside rcu_dereference_check() inside task_css_check().

So, overall check expression is:

lockdep_is_held(&cgroup_mutex) ||  <- in task_css_set_check
lockdep_is_held(&css_set_rwsem) ||
((task)->flags & PF_EXITING) ||
rcu_read_lock_bh_held() || <- mine
rcu_read_lock_held() <- in rcu_dereference_check
