Once Aristeu posts the > updated version, I'll route the whole series through cgroup/for-3.7. I'm about to submit it, just doing last build and testing round. Merged back the changes Hugh asked in patch 1. Also found why the list reinitialization was needed in the past; one of the old iterations had a bug in the remount code and was cleaning the xattrs out of the cgroup directory but not actually removing the directory, thus new xattrs got added to a list of freed xattrs. So I believe we're good to go. -- Aristeu -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe cgroups" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
