Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] cpuacct: rename parameter in cpuusage_write for readability

The name of 'reset' makes a little confusion in reading, we would
say, if we want to reset usage, return -EINVAL. That's not true.

Actually, we want to say, we only allow user to do a reset. This
patch rename reset to val and add a comment here, making the code
more readable.

Changelog v1->v2:
1: Rebase on top of 4.5-rc6
2: Fix little spelling typo in description.
3: Fix line over 80 characters
4: Add Acked-by: Tejun Heo <tj@...nel.org>

Yang Dongsheng (2):
  cpuacct: rename parameter in cpuusage_write for readability
  cpuacct: split usage into user_usage and sys_usage.
