From 0cd9d33ace336bc424fc30944aa3defd6786e4fe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo Date: Thu, 30 Jan 2020 11:37:33 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] cgroup: init_tasks shouldn't be linked to the root cgroup 5153faac18d2 ("cgroup: remove cgroup_enable_task_cg_lists() optimization") removed lazy initialization of css_sets so that new tasks are always lniked to its css_set. In the process, it incorrectly ended up adding init_tasks to root css_set. They show up as PID 0's in root's cgroup.procs triggering warnings in systemd and generally confusing people. Fix it by skip css_set linking for init_tasks.
