Merge branch 'for-3.5-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup

Pull two cgroup fixes from Tejun Heo:
 "This containes two patches fixing a refcnt race bug during css_put().
  Decrementing and checking the value weren't atomic and two tasks could
  think that they both pushed the counter to zero."

* 'for-3.5-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup:
  cgroups: Account for CSS_DEACT_BIAS in __css_put
  cgroup: make sure that decisions in __css_put are atomic
