Subject: [PATCHSET cgroup/for-3.16] cgroup: implement css->id

Hello,

Until now, cgroup->id has been used to identify all the associated
csses and css_from_id() takes cgroup ID and returns the matching css
by looking up the cgroup and then dereferencing the css associated
with it; however, now that the lifetimes of cgroup and css are
separate, this is incorrect and breaks on the unified hierarchy when a
controller is disabled and enabled back again before the previous
instance is released.

This series adds css->id which is a subsystem-unique ID and converts
css_from_id() to look up by the new css->id instead.  memcg is the
only user of css_from_id() and also converted to use css->id instead.

 0002-cgroup-memcg-allocate-cgroup-ID-from-1.patch
 0003-cgroup-protect-cgroup_root-cgroup_idr-with-a-spinloc.patch
 0004-cgroup-use-RCU-free-in-create_css-failure-path.patch
 0005-cgroup-update-init_css-into-init_and_link_css.patch
 0006-cgroup-memcg-implement-css-id-and-convert-css_from_i.patch

0001-0003 are related prep/cleanups.

0004-0006 add css->id and convert css_from_id() and its user to it.
