Merge branch 'for-3.5' of ../cgroup into block/for-3.5/core-merged
cgroup/for-3.5 contains the following changes which blk-cgroup needs to proceed with the on-going cleanup. * Dynamic addition and removal of cftypes to make config/stat file handling modular for policies. * cgroup removal update to not wait for css references to drain to fix blkcg removal hang caused by cfq caching cfqgs. Pull in cgroup/for-3.5 into block/for-3.5/core. This causes the following conflicts in block/blk-cgroup.c. * 761b3ef50e "cgroup: remove cgroup_subsys argument from callbacks" conflicts with blkiocg_pre_destroy() addition and blkiocg_attach() removal. Resolved by removing @subsys from all subsys methods. * 676f7c8f84 "cgroup: relocate cftype and cgroup_subsys definitions in controllers" conflicts with ->pre_destroy() and ->attach() updates and removal of modular config. Resolved by dropping forward declarations of the methods and applying updates to the relocated blkio_subsys. * 4baf6e3325 "cgroup: convert all non-memcg controllers to the new cftype interface" builds upon the previous item. Resolved by adding ->base_cftypes to the relocated blkio_subsys. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
