cgroup: reimplement rebind_subsystems() using cgroup_apply_control() and friends
rebind_subsystem() open codes quite a bit of css and interface file
manipulations. It tries to be fail-safe but doesn't quite achieve it.
It can be greatly simplified by using the new css management helpers.
This patch reimplements rebind_subsytsems() using
cgroup_apply_control() and friends.
* The half-baked rollback on file creation failure is dropped. It is
an extremely cold path, failure isn't critical, and, aside from
kernel bugs, the only reason it can fail is memory allocation
failure which pretty much doesn't happen for small allocations.
* As cgroup_apply_control_disable() is now used to clean up root
cgroup on rebind, make sure that it doesn't end up killing root
csses.
* All callers of rebind_subsystems() are updated to use
cgroup_lock_and_drain_offline() as the apply_control functions
require drained subtree.
* This leaves cgroup_refresh_subtree_ss_mask() without any user.
Removed.
* css_populate_dir() and css_clear_dir() no longer needs
@cgrp_override parameter. Dropped.
* While at it, add WARN_ON() to rebind_subsystem() calls which are
expected to always succeed just in case.
While the rules visible to userland aren't changed, this
reimplementation not only simplifies rebind_subsystems() but also
allows it to disable and enable csses recursively. This can be used
to implement more flexible rebinding.
