[PATCH v3 5/6] memcg: make mem_cgroup_reparent_charges non failing

From: Michal Hocko
Date: Fri Oct 26 2012 - 07:38:38 EST


Now that pre_destroy callbacks are called from the context where neither
any task can attach the group nor any children group can be added there
is no other way to fail from mem_cgroup_pre_destroy.
mem_cgroup_pre_destroy doesn't have to take a reference to memcg's css
because all css' are marked dead already.
