Linus Torvalds 32d01dc7be Merge branch 'for-3.15' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup
Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
 "A lot updates for cgroup:

   - The biggest one is cgroup's conversion to kernfs.  cgroup took
     after the long abandoned vfs-entangled sysfs implementation and
     made it even more convoluted over time.  cgroup's internal objects
     were fused with vfs objects which also brought in vfs locking and
     object lifetime rules.  Naturally, there are places where vfs rules
     don't fit and nasty hacks, such as credential switching or lock
     dance interleaving inode mutex and cgroup_mutex with object serial
     number comparison thrown in to decide whether the operation is
     actually necessary, needed to be employed.

     After conversion to kernfs, internal object lifetime and locking
     rules are mostly isolated from vfs interactions allowing shedding
     of several nasty hacks and overall simplification.  This will also
     allow implmentation of operations which may affect multiple cgroups
     which weren't possible before as it would have required nesting
     i_mutexes.

   - Various simplifications including dropping of module support,
     easier cgroup name/path handling, simplified cgroup file type
     handling and task_cg_lists optimization.

   - Prepatory changes for the planned unified hierarchy, which is still
     a patchset away from being actually operational.  The dummy
     hierarchy is updated to serve as the default unified hierarchy.
     Controllers which aren't claimed by other hierarchies are
     associated with it, which BTW was what the dummy hierarchy was for
     anyway.

   - Various fixes from Li and others.  This pull request includes some
     patches to add missing slab.h to various subsystems.  This was
     triggered xattr.h include removal from cgroup.h.  cgroup.h
     indirectly got included a lot of files which brought in xattr.h
     which brought in slab.h.

  There are several merge commits - one to pull in kernfs updates
  necessary for converting cgroup (already in upstream through
  driver-core), others for interfering changes in the fixes branch"
