Merge branch 'for-5.13-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup
Pull cgroup fix from Tejun Heo: "This is a high priority but low risk fix for a cgroup1 bug where rename(2) can change a cgroup's name to something which can break parsing of /proc/PID/cgroup" * 'for-5.13-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup: cgroup1: don't allow '\n' in renaming
