Yep, will do.

Ok, so a simple mutex_lock() should suffice then.

Ah, great!

I need to look into this before I can say yay or nay. :)

Hm, maybe. My reasoning was that the can_fork callbacks are really only
ever used when - well - fork()ing/clone{3}()ing. Additionally, I was
trying to make sure that struct css_set doesn't show up in too many
places outside of cgroup core. But I'm fine with changing this to just
take the css_set directly. Let's try that...

Should be doable!

Thanks and I agree! :)
