v4: Fixed memcg restart bug reported by hughd in v3, patch 4/5
v3: https://lore.kernel.org/20240827230753.2073580-1-kinseyho@xxxxxxxxxx/
Removed __rcu tag from patch 2/5 which removes the need for
rcu_dereference(). This helps readability.
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/20240813204716.842811-1-kinseyho@xxxxxxxxxx/
Add patch to clarify css sibling linkage is RCU protected. The
kernel build bot RCU sparse error from v1 has been ignored.
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/20240724190214.1108049-1-kinseyho@xxxxxxxxxx/

Kinsey Ho (5):
  cgroup: clarify css sibling linkage is protected by cgroup_mutex or
    RCU
  mm: don't hold css->refcnt during traversal
  mm: increment gen # before restarting traversal
  mm: restart if multiple traversals raced
  mm: clean up mem_cgroup_iter()
