cgroup: fix to allow mounting a hierarchy by name
cgroup: move assignement out of condition in cgroup_attach_proc()
cgroup: Remove task_lock() from cgroup_post_fork()
cgroup: add sparse annotation to cgroup_iter_start() and cgroup_iter_end()
cgroup: mark cgroup_rmdir_waitq and cgroup_attach_proc() as static
cgroup: only need to check oldcgrp==newgrp once
cgroup: remove redundant get/put of task struct
cgroup: remove redundant get/put of old css_set from migrate
cgroup: Remove unnecessary task_lock before fetching css_set on migration
cgroup: Drop task_lock(parent) on cgroup_fork()
cgroups: remove redundant get/put of css_set from css_set_check_fetched()
resource cgroups: remove bogus cast
cgroup: kill subsys->can_attach_task(), pre_attach() and attach_task()
cgroup, cpuset: don't use ss->pre_attach()
cgroup: don't use subsys->can_attach_task() or ->attach_task()
cgroup: introduce cgroup_taskset and use it in subsys->can_attach(), cancel_attach() and attach()
cgroup: improve old cgroup handling in cgroup_attach_proc()
cgroup: always lock threadgroup during migration
threadgroup: extend threadgroup_lock() to cover exit and exec
threadgroup: rename signal->threadgroup_fork_lock to ->group_rwsem
...
Fix up conflict in kernel/cgroup.c due to commit e0197aae59e5: "cgroups:
fix a css_set not found bug in cgroup_attach_proc" that already
mentioned that the bug is fixed (differently) in Tejun's cgroup
patchset. This one, in other words.
