Merge branch 'for-4.3-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup

Pull cgroup fixes from Tejun Heo:
 "The threadgroup locking changes which went in during 4.2 devel cycle
  added write locking of a percpu_rwsem in cgroup task migration path;
  unfortunately, that involved expedited rcu syncing which turned out to
  be too slow and heavy for certain workloads.  The patchset which is
  dependent on this one didn't get committed during that devel cycle, so
  these two patches can be reverted safely.

  Oleg reworked percpu_rwsem for 4.4 so that the writer path is a lot
  lighter.  The reported issue goes away with Oleg's reworked
  percpu_rwsem and I'll reapply these patches on the for-4.4 branch so
  that they can land together with Oleg's changes"

* 'for-4.3-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup:
  Revert "sched, cgroup: replace signal_struct->group_rwsem with a global percpu_rwsem"
  Revert "cgroup: simplify threadgroup locking"
