[PATCH 3/3] memcg: let css_get_next() rely upon rcu_read_lock()

From: Hugh Dickins
Date: Thu Jan 19 2012 - 15:52:05 EST


Remove lock and unlock around css_get_next()'s call to idr_get_next().
memcg iterators (only users of css_get_next) already did rcu_read_lock(),
and its comment demands that; but add a WARN_ON_ONCE to make sure of it.
