[PATCH 1/5] cgroup: ID notification call back

From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
Date: Fri Aug 20 2010 - 06:03:20 EST

When cgroup subsystem use ID (ss->use_id==1), each css's ID is assigned
after successful call of ->create(). css_ID is tightly coupled with
css struct itself but it is allocated by ->create() call, IOW,
per-subsystem special allocations.

To know css_id before creation, this patch adds id_attached() callback.
after css_ID allocation. This will be used by memory cgroup's quick lookup
routine.

Maybe you can think of other implementations as
- pass ID to ->create()
or
- add post_create()
etc...
But when considering dirtiness of codes, this straightforward patch seems
good to me. If someone wants post_create(), this patch can be replaced.

Changelog: 20100820
- new approarch.
