Inherit netprio configuration from ->css_online(), allow nesting and
remove .broken_hierarchy marking.  This makes netprio_cgroup's
behavior match netcls_cgroup's.

Note that this patch changes userland-visible behavior.  Nesting is
allowed and the first level cgroups below the root cgroup behave
differently - they inherit priorities from the root cgroup on creation
instead of starting with 0.  This is unfortunate but not doing so is
much crazier.

BTW, parent is always != NULL, because the root cgroup will be attached 
to the dummytop cgroup.

This is the reason why there are this check in netprio_prio()

static u32 netprio_prio(struct cgroup *cgrp, struct net_device *dev)
{
	struct netprio_map *map = rcu_dereference_rtnl(dev->priomap);

	if (map && cgrp->id < map->priomap_len)
		return map->priomap[cgrp->id];

is necessary.

cheer,
daniel

Hmmm?  I'm confused.  When ->css_online() is called for dummytop in
cgroup_init_subsys(), its parent is NULL.  What am I missing?

Thanks.

Forget my comment, I was really confused when writing this. I was 
looking only at cgroups which were created after bootup.

cheers,
daniel
