Subject: cgroup: reorder the operations in cgroup_destroy_locked()
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=455050d23e1bfc47ca98e943ad5b2f3a9bbe45fb;p=linux-beck.git

cgroup: reorder the operations in cgroup_destroy_locked()

This patch reorders the operations in cgroup_destroy_locked() such
that the userland visible parts happen before css offlining and
removal from the ->sibling list.  This will be used to make css use
percpu refcnt.

While at it, split out CGRP_DEAD related comment from the refcnt
deactivation one and correct / clarify how different guarantees are
met.

While this patch changes the specific order of operations, it
shouldn't cause any noticeable behavior difference.
