The order that you release the locks is irrelevant for correctness. In
this case, since the only callers of cgroup_lock_hierarchy() also hold
cgroup_mutex and hence can't race with one another, the order of
locking is irrelevant for correctness too - right now the locking
order is just designed to keep lockdep happy.
I think that the reverse-ordered loop is less readable for no gain.
