Applied to cgroup/for-3.7-hierarchy w/ acks added.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup.git for-3.7-hierarchy

The branch is based on top of the current mainline (fbcbe2b3c 3.6-rc5)
and only contains hierarchy related changes. The branch will be kept
stable unless I do something completely stupid, so please feel free to
pull into other trees as necessary.

Thanks.
