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
