Merge branch 'for-4.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
 "Nothing too interesting.  Rik made cpuset cooperate better with
  isolcpus and there are several other cleanup patches"

* 'for-4.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup:
  cpuset, isolcpus: document relationship between cpusets & isolcpus
  cpusets, isolcpus: exclude isolcpus from load balancing in cpusets
  sched, isolcpu: make cpu_isolated_map visible outside scheduler
  cpuset: initialize cpuset a bit early
  cgroup: Use kvfree in pidlist_free()
  cgroup: call cgroup_subsys->bind on cgroup subsys initialization
