Merge branch 'for-3.15-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup
Pull cgroup fixes from Tejun Heo: "During recent restructuring, device_cgroup unified config input check and enforcement logic; unfortunately, it turned out to share too much. Aristeu's patches fix the breakage and marked for -stable backport. The other two patches are fallouts from kernfs conversion. The blkcg change is temporary and will go away once kernfs internal locking gets simplified (patches pending)" * 'for-3.15-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup: blkcg: use trylock on blkcg_pol_mutex in blkcg_reset_stats() device_cgroup: check if exception removal is allowed device_cgroup: fix the comment format for recently added functions device_cgroup: rework device access check and exception checking cgroup: fix the retry path of cgroup_mount()
