Yafang Shao dd9542ae7c cgroup: Make operations on the cgroup root_list RCU safe
commit d23b5c5777 upstream.

At present, when we perform operations on the cgroup root_list, we must
hold the cgroup_mutex, which is a relatively heavyweight lock. In reality,
we can make operations on this list RCU-safe, eliminating the need to hold
the cgroup_mutex during traversal. Modifications to the list only occur in
the cgroup root setup and destroy paths, which should be infrequent in a
production environment. In contrast, traversal may occur frequently.
Therefore, making it RCU-safe would be beneficial.

README

Linux kernel

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use make htmldocs or make pdfdocs. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
