Looking at the use case in patch 2, I would suggest the following APIs.

- bool cgroup_rstat_lock(struct cgroup *cgrp)
- bool cgroup_rstat_lock_or_flushed(struct cgroup *cgrp)

Both will return a bool indicating a flush has already been done if 
true. The 2nd function will not take the lock if a flush is ongoing. 
Both will wait if a flush is ongoing.

Cheers,
Longman
