Maybe take a cgroup ID instead of a path? Userspace can read it as the
inode number of the cgroup directory, and cgroup_get_from_id() resolves it
at enable time the same way cgroup_get_from_path() does now. The attribute
then becomes a u64, which drops the string allocation and freeing along
with the path validation. IDs are also never reused, while a path can
later name a different cgroup created at the same location.

Thanks.
