Subject: cgroup: keep css_set and task lists in chronological order
X-Git-Tag: KARO-TX6UL-2015-11-03~32^2~10
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=389b9c1bc927c8194a49f5f0c7e069ed0ec79b9e;p=karo-tx-linux.git

cgroup: keep css_set and task lists in chronological order

css task iteration will be updated to not leak cgroup internal locking
to iterator users.  In preparation, update css_set and task lists to
be in chronological order.

For tasks, as migration path is already using list_splice_tail_init(),
only cgroup_enable_task_cg_lists() and cgroup_post_fork() need
updating.  For css_sets, link_css_set() is the only place which needs
to be updated.
