Merge branch 'for-4.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup
Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
- For cpustat, cgroup has a percpu hierarchical stat mechanism which
propagates up the hierarchy lazily.
This contains commits to factor out and generalize the mechanism so
that it can be used for other cgroup stats too.
The original intention was to update memcg stats to use it but memcg
went for a different approach, so still the only user is cpustat. The
factoring out and generalization still make sense and it's likely
that this can be used for other purposes in the future.
- cgroup uses kernfs_notify() (which uses fsnotify()) to inform user
space of certain events. A rate limiting mechanism is added.
- Other misc changes.
