Documentation/cgroup-v1: fix outdated programming details
The cgroup-v1 documentation is out of date in a few places: * cgroup controllers can no longer be compiled as modules since commit 3ed80a6 ("cgroup: drop module support"); the functions and fields referenced here no longer exist. * Controllers need to create of a cgroup_subsys object named "<name>_cgrp_subsys" instead of "<name>_subsys" since commit 073219e ("cgroup: clean up cgroup_subsys names and initialization") Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Cc: linux-doc@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Matt Roper <matthew.d.roper@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
