Merge branch 'for-3.11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup
Pull cgroup changes from Tejun Heo: "This pull request contains the following changes. - cgroup_subsys_state (css) reference counting has been converted to percpu-ref. css is what each resource controller embeds into its own control structure and perform reference count against. It may be used in hot paths of various subsystems and is similar to module refcnt in that aspect. For example, block-cgroup's css refcnting was showing up a lot in Mikulaus's device-mapper scalability work and this should alleviate it. - cgroup subtree iterator has been updated so that RCU read lock can be released after grabbing reference. This allows simplifying its users which requires blocking which used to build iteration list under RCU read lock and then traverse it outside. This pull request contains simplification of cgroup core and device-cgroup. A separate pull request will update cpuset. - Fixes for various bugs including corner race conditions and RCU usage bugs. - A lot of cleanups and some prepartory work for the planned unified hierarchy support." * 'for-3.11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup: (48 commits) cgroup: CGRP_ROOT_SUBSYS_BOUND should also be ignored when mounting an existing hierarchy cgroup: CGRP_ROOT_SUBSYS_BOUND should be ignored when comparing mount options cgroup: fix deadlock on cgroup_mutex via drop_parsed_module_refcounts() cgroup: always use RCU accessors for protected accesses cgroup: fix RCU accesses around task->cgroups cgroup: fix RCU accesses to task->cgroups cgroup: grab cgroup_mutex in drop_parsed_module_refcounts() cgroup: fix cgroupfs_root early destruction path cgroup: reserve ID 0 for dummy_root and 1 for unified hierarchy cgroup: implement for_each_[builtin_]subsys() cgroup: move init_css_set initialization inside cgroup_mutex cgroup: s/for_each_subsys()/for_each_root_subsys()/ cgroup: clean up find_css_set() and friends cgroup: remove cgroup->actual_subsys_mask cgroup: prefix global variables with "cgroup_" cgroup: convert CFTYPE_* flags to enums cgroup: rename cont to cgrp cgroup: clean up cgroup_serial_nr_cursor cgroup: convert cgroup_cft_commit() to use cgroup_for_each_descendant_pre() cgroup: make serial_nr_cursor available throughout cgroup.c ...
