[PATCH v3 2/3] cgroup: revise how we re-populate root directory

From: Aristeu Rozanski
Date: Mon Jul 02 2012 - 10:29:58 EST


From: Li Zefan <lizefan@xxxxxxxxxx>

When remounting cgroupfs with some subsystems added to it and some
removed, cgroup will remove all the files in root directory and then
re-popluate it.

What I'm doing here is, only remove files which belong to subsystems that
are to be unbinded, and only create files for newly-added subsystems.
The purpose is to have all other files untouched.

This is a preparation for cgroup xattr support.

v3:
- refresh patches after recent refactoring
