Linus Torvalds 191a712090 Merge branch 'for-3.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup
Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:

 - Fixes and a lot of cleanups.  Locking cleanup is finally complete.
   cgroup_mutex is no longer exposed to individual controlelrs which
   used to cause nasty deadlock issues.  Li fixed and cleaned up quite a
   bit including long standing ones like racy cgroup_path().

 - device cgroup now supports proper hierarchy thanks to Aristeu.

 - perf_event cgroup now supports proper hierarchy.

 - A new mount option "__DEVEL__sane_behavior" is added.  As indicated
   by the name, this option is to be used for development only at this
   point and generates a warning message when used.  Unfortunately,
   cgroup interface currently has too many brekages and inconsistencies
   to implement a consistent and unified hierarchy on top.  The new flag
   is used to collect the behavior changes which are necessary to
   implement consistent unified hierarchy.  It's likely that this flag
   won't be used verbatim when it becomes ready but will be enabled
   implicitly along with unified hierarchy.

   The option currently disables some of broken behaviors in cgroup core
   and also .use_hierarchy switch in memcg (will be routed through -mm),
   which can be used to make very unusual hierarchy where nesting is
   partially honored.  It will also be used to implement hierarchy
   support for blk-throttle which would be impossible otherwise without
   introducing a full separate set of control knobs.

   This is essentially versioning of interface which isn't very nice but
   at this point I can't see any other options which would allow keeping
   the interface the same while moving towards hierarchy behavior which
   is at least somewhat sane.  The planned unified hierarchy is likely
   to require some level of adaptation from userland anyway, so I think
   it'd be best to take the chance and update the interface such that
   it's supportable in the long term.

   Maintaining the existing interface does complicate cgroup core but
   shouldn't put too much strain on individual controllers and I think
   it'd be manageable for the foreseeable future.  Maybe we'll be able
   to drop it in a decade.

Fix up conflicts (including a semantic one adding a new #include to ppc
that was uncovered by header the file changes) as per Tejun.
