That would > probably be the simplest way to solve this all :-) I will need to dig into it a bit more to know for sure. I think I still need the init_drmcgrp stuff. I implemented it like this because the cgroup subsystem appear to be initialized before the drm subsystem so the root cgroup does not know any drm devices and the per device default limits are not set. In theory, I should only need to set the root cgroup (so I don't need to use css_for_each_descendant_pre, which requires the rcu_lock.) But I am not 100% confident there won't be any additional cgroup being added to the hierarchy between cgroup subsystem init and drm subsystem init. Alternatively I can protect it with an additional mutex but I am not sure if that's needed.
