Pull cgroup fix from Tejun Heo:
 "Unfortunately, the commit to fix the cgroup mount race in the previous
  pull request can lead to hangs.

  The original bug has been around for a while and isn't too likely to
  be triggered in usual use cases. Revert the commit for now"

* 'for-4.11-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup:
  Revert "cgroup: avoid attaching a cgroup root to two different superblocks"
