PATCH 1/1 cgroup: reserve ID 0 for dummy_root and 1 for unified hierarchy

Before 1a57423166 ("cgroup: make hierarchy_id use cyclic idr"), hierarchy IDs were allocated from 0. As the dummy hierarchy was always the one first initialized, it got assigned 0 and all other hierarchies from 1. The patch accidentally changed the minimum useable ID to 2.

Let's restore ID 0 for dummy_root and while at it reserve 1 for unified hierarchy.

Applied to cgroup/for-3.11.

Thanks.
