CGroup API files: add cgroup map data type
Adds a new type of supported control file representation, a map from strings to u64 values. Each map entry is printed as a line in a similar format to /proc/vmstat, i.e. "$key $value\n" Signed-off-by: Paul Menage <menage@google.com> Cc: "Li Zefan" <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Balbir Singh <balbir@in.ibm.com> Cc: Paul Jackson <pj@sgi.com> Cc: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Cc: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: "YAMAMOTO Takashi" <yamamoto@valinux.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
