For completeness here

When I look at it applied altogther, there's one extra notification
(heritage of forkfail events), it should be fixed with:

--- a/kernel/cgroup/pids.c
+++ b/kernel/cgroup/pids.c
@@ -251,10 +251,11 @@ static void pids_event(struct pids_cgroup *pids_forking,

        }
-       cgroup_file_notify(&p->events_local_file);
        if (!cgroup_subsys_on_dfl(pids_cgrp_subsys) ||
-           cgrp_dfl_root.flags & CGRP_ROOT_PIDS_LOCAL_EVENTS)
+           cgrp_dfl_root.flags & CGRP_ROOT_PIDS_LOCAL_EVENTS) {

                return;

        atomic64_inc(&pids_over_limit->events_local[PIDCG_MAX]);
        cgroup_file_notify(&pids_over_limit->events_local_file);

Besides that it makes sense to me.

Thanks,
