First, generally, I don't think 'allows' added to parent should be

that's what I think too and what I tried to do

In devcgroup_update_access: (around line 625)
	there is a period of time where cgroup members have
	default allow without the parent's exceptions.

true, will fix that one and look for more cases

propagate_behavior (line 505):
	1. doesn't follow the same ordering as devcgroup_update_access(), in
	particular cleaning exceptions before setting behavior.

I see, will update that

	2. When changing a parent from deny to allow, I don't think children
	should be updated.

I disagree on this one. since there'll be local preferences, it'll try
to revalidate them everytime there's a change. so, for example, an
exception that might not be possible now, will be possible when its
parent changes in a way that allows that.
