The patch titled
cgroups: show correct file mode
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
cgroups-show-correct-file-mode.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/

Subject: cgroups: show correct file mode
From: Li Zefan <lizf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
We have some read-only files and write-only files, but currently they are
all set to 0644, which is counter-intuitive and cause trouble for some
cgroup tools like libcgroup.
This patch adds 'mode' to struct cftype to allow cgroup subsys to set it's
own files' file mode, and for the most cases cft->mode can be default to 0
and cgroup will figure out proper mode.
