Pull cgroup fix from Tejun Heo:
 "Fix an old and subtle bug in the migration path.

  css_sets are used to track tasks and migrations are tasks moving from
  a group of css_sets to another group of css_sets. The migration path
  pins all source and destination css_sets in the prep stage.

  Unfortunately, it was overloading the same list_head entry to track
  sources and destinations, which got confused for migrations which are
  partially identity leading to use-after-frees.

  Fixed by using dedicated list_heads for tracking sources and
  destinations"

  cgroup: Use separate src/dst nodes when preloading css_sets for migration

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
