The operation order of cgroup creation is about to change and cgroup_create_dir() is more of a hindrance than a proper abstraction. Open-code it by moving the parent nlink adjustment next to self nlink adjustment in cgroup_create_file() and the rest to cgroup_create().
This patch doesn't introduce any behavior change.
