css reference counting keeps the cgroup alive even though it has been

mem_cgroup_iter currently releases the reference right after it gets the
last css_id.
This is correct because neither prev's memcg nor cgroup are accessed
after then. This will change in the next patch so we need to hold the
group alive a bit longer so let's move the css_put at the end of the
function.
