[PATCH 2/2] cgroup, cpuset: remove cgroup_subsys->post_clone()

[Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>]

>From bbf2566f9f4fc79ff3320e83cafb69533efc9ea0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
Date: Tue, 13 Nov 2012 12:21:50 -0800

Currently CGRP_CPUSET_CLONE_CHILDREN triggers ->post_clone().  Now
that clone_children is cpuset specific, there's no reason to have this
rather odd option activation mechanism in cgroup core.  cpuset can
check the flag from its ->css_allocate() and take the necessary
action.

Move cpuset_post_clone() logic to the end of cpuset_css_alloc() and
remove cgroup_subsys->post_clone().

Loosely based on Glauber's "generalize post_clone into post_create"
patch.
