[PATCH v2] cgroups: make cftype.unregister_event() void-returning

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Since we unable to handle error returned by cftype.unregister_event()
properly, let's make the callback void-returning.

mem_cgroup_unregister_event() has been rewritten to be "never fail"
function. On mem_cgroup_usage_register_event() we save old buffer
for thresholds array and reuse it in mem_cgroup_usage_unregister_event()
to avoid allocation.
