      Merge branch 'slab/for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/penberg/linux · 54be8200
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull slab update from Pekka Enberg:
       "Highlights:
      
        - Fix for boot-time problems on some architectures due to
          init_lock_keys() not respecting kmalloc_caches boundaries
          (Christoph Lameter)
      
        - CONFIG_SLUB_CPU_PARTIAL requested by RT folks (Joonsoo Kim)
      
        - Fix for excessive slab freelist draining (Wanpeng Li)
      
        - SLUB and SLOB cleanups and fixes (various people)"
      
      I ended up editing the branch, and this avoids two commits at the end
      that were immediately reverted, and I instead just applied the oneliner
      fix in between myself.
