I don't think so, I think cgroup_clone() will be called only if namespace is
used, like clone(CLONE_NEWNS). Even if cgroup_clone() gets called, it will
return before doing any vfs work unless the ns_cgroup subsystem is mounted.

int cgroup_clone(struct task_struct *tsk, struct cgroup_subsys *subsys,
                                                        char *nodename)
{
        ...
        mutex_lock(&cgroup_mutex);
 again:
        root = subsys->root;
        if (root == &rootnode) {        <--- here
                mutex_unlock(&cgroup_mutex);
                return 0;
        }
