Task Control Groups: automatic userspace notification of idle cgroups
Add the following files to the cgroup filesystem:
notify_on_release - configures/reports whether the cgroup subsystem should
attempt to run a release script when this cgroup becomes unused
release_agent - configures/reports the release agent to be used for this
hierarchy (top level in each hierarchy only)
releasable - reports whether this cgroup would have been auto-released if
notify_on_release was true and a release agent was configured (mainly useful
for debugging)
To avoid locking issues, invoking the userspace release agent is done via a
workqueue task; cgroups that need to have their release agents invoked by
the workqueue task are linked on to a list.
