cgroup: Merge branch 'memcg_event' into for-3.14
Merge v3.12 based patch series to move cgroup_event implementation to
memcg into for-3.14. The following two commits cause a conflict in
kernel/cgroup.c
2ff2a7d03bbe4 ("cgroup: kill css_id")
79bd9814e5ec9 ("cgroup, memcg: move cgroup_event implementation to memcg")
Each patch removes a struct definition from kernel/cgroup.c. As the
two are adjacent, they cause a context conflict. Easily resolved by
removing both structs.
