Merge branch 'for-3.14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup
Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
"The bulk of changes are cleanups and preparations for the upcoming
kernfs conversion.
- cgroup_event mechanism which is and will be used only by memcg is
moved to memcg.
- pidlist handling is updated so that it can be served by seq_file.
Also, the list is not sorted if sane_behavior. cgroup
documentation explicitly states that the file is not sorted but it
has been for quite some time.
- All cgroup file handling now happens on top of seq_file. This is
to prepare for kernfs conversion. In addition, all operations are
restructured so that they map 1-1 to kernfs operations.
- Other cleanups and low-pri fixes"
