cgroup, memcg, cpuset: implement cgroup_taskset_for_each_leader()
It wasn't explicitly documented but, when a process is being migrated, cpuset and memcg depend on cgroup_taskset_first() returning the threadgroup leader; however, this approach is somewhat ghetto and would no longer work for the planned multi-process migration. This patch introduces explicit cgroup_taskset_for_each_leader() which iterates over only the threadgroup leaders and replaces cgroup_taskset_first() usages for accessing the leader with it. This prepares both memcg and cpuset for multi-process migration. This patch also updates the documentation for cgroup_taskset_for_each() to clarify the iteration rules and removes comments mentioning task ordering in tasksets. v2: A previous patch which added threadgroup leader test was dropped. Patch updated accordingly. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Zefan Li <lizefan@huawei.com> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org>
