Subject: [PATCH] cgroup:be able to remove the record of unplugged device

If doing like below:
Write a record like:
"echo 8:0 1000 > blkio.throttle.read_bps_device" to control the bps of the device.
And then unplug this device without doing
"8:0 0 > blkio.throttle.read_bps_device" to remove the record,
it will not be removed until reboot, because if the device is removed,
write some record will return "-ENODEV".

With this patch, when the device is removed, then if we want to remove
the record for this removed device, just write "0" then it'll not check
if it is a present device, just remove the present record.

BTW:If it can support hot-plug, will it be more better?

Thanks

Below is my test:
1. Test native:
[root@...t ~]# mount -t cgroup -o blkio nodev /cgroup/
[root@...t ~]# cd /cgroup/
[root@...t cgroup]# ll /dev/sd*
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 0 Jul 25 13:27 /dev/sda
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 1 Jul 25 13:27 /dev/sda1
[root@...t cgroup]# cat blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
[root@...t cgroup]# echo 8:0 1000 > blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
[root@...t cgroup]# cat blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
8:0	1000
[root@...t cgroup]# echo 8:0 0 > blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
[root@...t cgroup]# cat blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
[root@...t cgroup]# echo 8:0 1000 > blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
[root@...t cgroup]# cat blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
8:0	1000
[root@...t cgroup]# ll /dev/sd*
ls: cannot access /dev/sd*: No such file or directory
[root@...t cgroup]# cat blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
8:0	1000
[root@...t cgroup]# echo 8:0 0 > blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
-bash: echo: write error: No such device
[root@...t cgroup]# cat blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
8:0	1000

2.Test with this patch:

[root@...t ~]# mount -t cgroup -o blkio nodev /cgroup/
[root@...t ~]# ll /dev/sd*
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 0 Jul 25 13:11 /dev/sda
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 1 Jul 25 13:11 /dev/sda1
[root@...t ~]# cd /cgroup/
[root@...t cgroup]# echo 8:0 1000 > blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
[root@...t cgroup]# cat blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
8:0	1000
[root@...t cgroup]# ll /dev/sd*
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 0 Jul 25 13:11 /dev/sda
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 1 Jul 25 13:11 /dev/sda1
[root@...t cgroup]# echo 8:0 0 > blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
[root@...t cgroup]# cat blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
[root@...t cgroup]# ll /dev/sd*
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 0 Jul 25 13:11 /dev/sda
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 1 Jul 25 13:11 /dev/sda1
[root@...t cgroup]# echo 8:0 2000 > blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
[root@...t cgroup]# cat blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
8:0	2000

[root@...t cgroup]# ll /dev/sd*
ls: cannot access /dev/sd*: No such file or directory
[root@...t cgroup]# cat blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
8:0	2000
[root@...t cgroup]# echo 8:0 0 > blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
[root@...t cgroup]# cat blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
[root@...t cgroup]# echo 8:0 1000 > blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
-bash: echo: write error: No such device
[root@...t cgroup]# echo 8:0 01100 > blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
-bash: echo: write error: No such device
[root@...t cgroup]#
