From 648bb56d076bde31113f09a7d24d95bc8d4155ac Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo Date: Mon, 19 Nov 2012 08:13:36 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] cgroup: lock cgroup_mutex in cgroup_init_subsys() Make cgroup_init_subsys() grab cgroup_mutex while initializing a subsystem so that all helpers and callbacks are called under the context they expect. This isn't strictly necessary as cgroup_init_subsys() doesn't race with anybody but will allow adding lockdep assertions.
