This conflicts with a recent patch already queued up in -mm:

  selftests: cgroup: fix test_kmem_basic false positives

which adds a sleep(1) between cg_write() and cg_read_key_long().

Can you please rebase on top of

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm.git mm-unstable

and re-send the patch with

  To: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

? Thanks
