+Subject: cgroup: Make operations on the cgroup root_list RCU safe
+
+From: Yafang Shao <laoar.shao@gmail.com>
+
+commit d23b5c577715892c87533b13923306acc6243f93 upstream.
+
+At present, when we perform operations on the cgroup root_list, we must
+hold the cgroup_mutex, which is a relatively heavyweight lock. In reality,
+we can make operations on this list RCU-safe, eliminating the need to hold
+the cgroup_mutex during traversal. Modifications to the list only occur in
+the cgroup root setup and destroy paths, which should be infrequent in a
+production environment. In contrast, traversal may occur frequently.
+Therefore, making it RCU-safe would be beneficial.
