cgroup_rstat_cpu_pop_updated() is used to traverse the updated cgroups on flush. While it was only visiting updated ones in the subtree, it was visiting @root unconditionally. We can easily check whether @root is updated or not by looking at its ->updated_next just as with the cgroups in the subtree. * Remove the unnecessary cgroup_parent() test. The system root cgroup is never updated and thus its ->updated_next is always NULL. No need to test whether cgroup_parent() exists in addition to ->updated_next. * Terminate traverse if ->updated_next is NULL. This can only happen for subtree @root and there's no reason to visit it if it's not marked updated. This reduces cpu consumption when reading a lot of rstat backed files. In a micro benchmark reading stat from ~1600 cgroups, the sys time was lowered by >40%. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
