From 3bc942f372af383f49d56aab599469561a5e39ec Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo Date: Fri, 22 Nov 2013 18:20:44 -0500 Subject: memcg: rename cgroup_event to mem_cgroup_event cgroup_event is only available in memcg now. Let's brand it that way. While at it, add a comment encouraging deprecation of the feature and remove the respective section from cgroup documentation. This patch is cosmetic. v3: Typo update as per Li Zefan. v2: Index in cgroups.txt updated accordingly as suggested by Li Zefan. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo Acked-by: Li Zefan Acked-by: Kirill A.
