SubjectRe: [PATCH v1 3/3] cgroup: relax common ancestor restriction for direct descendants
Hello, James.

So, the admin just wants to move processes from A and only A to B. It
doesn't wanna interfere with processes in the subdirs or on-going ns
operations, but if the race occurs, both A -> B migration and ns
subdir operation would succeed and the end result would be something
neither expects.

Thanks.
