Linus Torvalds 748e7fc209 Merge branch 'for-4.8-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup ...

Pull cgroup fixes from Tejun Heo:
 "Two fixes for cgroup.

   - There still was a hole in enforcing cpuset rules, fixed by Li.

   - The recent switch to global percpu_rwseom for threadgroup locking
     revealed a couple issues in how percpu_rwsem is implemented and
     used by cgroup.  Balbir found that the read locking section was too
     wide unnecessarily including operations which can often depend on
     IOs.  With percpu_rwsem updates (coming through a different tree)
     and reduction of read locking section, all the reported locking
     latency issues, including the android one, are resolved.

  It looks like we can keep global percpu_rwsem locking for now.  If
  there actually are cases which can't be resolved, we can go back to
  more complex per-signal_struct locking"

* 'for-4.8-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup:
  cgroup: reduce read locked section of cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem during fork
  cpuset: make sure new tasks conform to the current config of the cpuset
