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

  2ff2a7d03b ("cgroup: kill css_id")
  79bd9814e5 ("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.

The name of the subsystem appears as part of the hierarchy description
in /proc/mounts and /proc/<pid>/cgroups.
2.4 Notification API
--------------------
There is mechanism which allows to get notifications about changing
status of a cgroup.
To register a new notification handler you need to:
- create a file descriptor for event notification using eventfd(2);
- open a control file to be monitored (e.g. memory.usage_in_bytes);
- write "<event_fd> <control_fd> <args>" to cgroup.event_control.
Interpretation of args is defined by control file implementation;
eventfd will be woken up by control file implementation or when the
cgroup is removed.
To unregister a notification handler just close eventfd.
NOTE: Support of notifications should be implemented for the control
file. See documentation for the subsystem.
