Merge branch 'for-4.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup
Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo: - For cpustat, cgroup has a percpu hierarchical stat mechanism which propagates up the hierarchy lazily. This contains commits to factor out and generalize the mechanism so that it can be used for other cgroup stats too. The original intention was to update memcg stats to use it but memcg went for a different approach, so still the only user is cpustat. The factoring out and generalization still make sense and it's likely that this can be used for other purposes in the future. - cgroup uses kernfs_notify() (which uses fsnotify()) to inform user space of certain events. A rate limiting mechanism is added. - Other misc changes. * 'for-4.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup: cgroup: css_set_lock should nest inside tasklist_lock rdmacg: Convert to use match_string() helper cgroup: Make cgroup_rstat_updated() ready for root cgroup usage cgroup: Add memory barriers to plug cgroup_rstat_updated() race window cgroup: Add cgroup_subsys->css_rstat_flush() cgroup: Replace cgroup_rstat_mutex with a spinlock cgroup: Factor out and expose cgroup_rstat_*() interface functions cgroup: Reorganize kernel/cgroup/rstat.c cgroup: Distinguish base resource stat implementation from rstat cgroup: Rename stat to rstat cgroup: Rename kernel/cgroup/stat.c to kernel/cgroup/rstat.c cgroup: Limit event generation frequency cgroup: Explicitly remove core interface files
