From 7bcc1bb1232de6efc0b85e0c7fe38e90b2436318 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daisuke Nishimura Date: Thu, 29 Jan 2009 14:25:11 -0800 Subject: memcg: get/put parents at create/free The lifetime of struct cgroup and struct mem_cgroup is different and mem_cgroup has its own reference count for handling references from swap_cgroup. This causes strange problem that the parent mem_cgroup dies while child mem_cgroup alive, and this problem causes a bug in case of use_hierarchy==1 because res_counter_uncharge climbs up the tree. This patch is for avoiding it by getting the parent at create, and putting it at freeing.
