Subject[GIT PULL] cgroup changes for v3.11-rc1
Hello, Linus.

Please note that cgroup/for-3.11 branch pulled in percpu/for-3.11 to
convert cgroup_subsys_state reference counting to percpu-ref and this
pull request assumes that percpu/for-3.11 is pulled in first.

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.

The changes are available in the following git branch

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup.git for-3.11
