Subject: [PATCH 0/7] fixups for kmemcg

Andrew,

As you requested, here are some fixups and clarifications for the kmemcg series.
It also handles one bug reported by Sasha.

Please note that I didn't touch kmem_cache_shrink(): I believe that deserves a
deeper and more thoughtful solution that will take time to brew. I plan to
address that eventually in the scope of per-memcg kernel memory reclaim.
I did, however, remove the delayed_work in favor of a normal worker. Memory
will stay around for longer, but it will be reclaimed eventually, and given
your objections I believe this is a more desirable trade off.

Please let me know if there is anything you would like to see different, and
sorry for not handling this earlier.

Glauber Costa (7):
  memcg: simplify ida initialization
  move include of workqueue.h to top of slab.h file
  memcg: remove test for current->mm in memcg_stop/resume_kmem_account
  memcg: replace __always_inline with plain inline
  memcg: get rid of once-per-second cache shrinking for dead memcgs
  memcg: add comments clarifying aspects of cache attribute propagation
  slub: drop mutex before deleting sysfs entry
