Hello,

This is v2 of cgroup.populated patchset changes from v1[L] are,

* Rebased on top of v3.15-rc1

* Patch description updated for the third patch as per Serge.

(inotify folks, can you please review the second patch which hooks up
 kernfs_notify() with fsnotify?  It works but directly invoking
 fsnotify_parent() and fsnotify() feels a bit dirty.  Maybe something
 like fsnotify_notify_modify_by_dentry() would make more sense?)

cgroup users often need a way to determine when a cgroup's
subhierarchy becomes empty so that it can be cleaned up.  cgroup
currently provides release_agent for it; unfortunately, this mechanism
is riddled with issues.  This patchset implements a replacement
mechanism "cgroup.subtree_populated" which can be used to monitor
whether the cgroup's subhierarchy has tasks in it or not and triggers
poll and [di]notify events when its content changes.

This patchset contains the following three patches.

 0001-kernfs-implement-kernfs_root-supers-list.patch
 0002-kernfs-make-kernfs_notify-trigger-inotify-events-too.patch
 0003-cgroup-implement-cgroup.subtree_populated-for-the-de.patch

0001-0002 add [di]notify notification to kernfs_notify().

0003 implements cgroup.subtree_populated.

This patchset is on top of "cgroup: implement unified hierarchy, v2"
patchset[1] and availalbe in the following git branch.
