Merge branch 'for-3.7-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup
Pull cgroup fixes from Tejun Heo: "This contains two fix patches for device_cgroup. One fixes a regression introduced earlier in 3.7 cycle where device_cgroup could try to dereference the NULL parent of the root cgroup. The other one is RCU usage fix." * 'for-3.7-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup: device_cgroup: fix RCU usage device_cgroup: fix unchecked cgroup parent usage
