[PATCH 3/5] cgroup: fix mount failure in a corner case

From: Li Zefan <hidden>
Date: 2014-06-12 06:32:24
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

  # cat test.sh
  #! /bin/bash

  mount -t cgroup -o cpu xxx /cgroup
  umount /cgroup

  mount -t cgroup -o cpu,cpuacct xxx /cgroup
  umount /cgroup
  # ./test.sh
  mount: xxx already mounted or /cgroup busy
  mount: according to mtab, xxx is already mounted on /cgroup

It's because the cgroupfs_root of the first mount was under destruction
asynchronously.

Fix this by delaying and then retrying mount in this case.
