    The root directory, ctrl_mon and monitor groups are populated
    with a read/write file named "tasks". When read, it shows all the task
    IDs assigned to the resource group.
    
    Tasks can be added to groups by writing the PID to the file. A task can
    be present in one "ctrl_mon" group "and" one "monitor" group. IOW a
    PID_x can be seen in a ctrl_mon group and a monitor group at the same
    time. When a task is added to a ctrl_mon group, it is automatically
    removed from the previous ctrl_mon group where it belonged. Similarly if
    a task is moved to a monitor group it is removed from the previous
    monitor group . Also since the monitor groups can only have subset of
    tasks of parent ctrl_mon group, a task can be moved to a monitor group
    only if its already present in the parent ctrl_mon group.
    
    Task membership is indicated by a new field in the task_struct "u32
    rmid" which holds the RMID for the task. RMID=0 is reserved for the
    default root group where the tasks belong to at mount.
    
    [tony: zero the rmid if rdtgroup was deleted when task was being moved]
