Subject: Cpuset hardwall flag: switch cpusets to use the bulk cgroup_add_files() API
From: Paul Menage <menage@google.com>

Currently the cpusets mem_exclusive flag is overloaded to mean both
"no-overlapping" and "no GFP_KERNEL allocations outside this cpuset".

These patches add a new mem_hardwall flag with just the allocation restriction
part of the mem_exclusive semantics, without breaking backwards-compatibility
for those who continue to use just mem_exclusive.  Additionally, the cgroup
control file registration for cpusets is cleaned up to reduce boilerplate.


This patch:

This change tidies up the cpusets control file definitions, and reduces the
amount of boilerplate required to add/change control files in the future.
