[merged] mm-slub-do-initial-checks-in-___slab_alloc-with-irqs-enabled.patch removed from -mm tree

[akpm]

The patch titled
     Subject: mm, slub: do initial checks in ___slab_alloc() with irqs enabled
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-slub-do-initial-checks-in-___slab_alloc-with-irqs-enabled.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
From: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz>
Subject: mm, slub: do initial checks in ___slab_alloc() with irqs enabled

As another step of shortening irq disabled sections in ___slab_alloc(),
delay disabling irqs until we pass the initial checks if there is a cached
percpu slab and it's suitable for our allocation.

Now we have to recheck c->page after actually disabling irqs as an
allocation in irq handler might have replaced it.

Because we call pfmemalloc_match() as one of the checks, we might hit
VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!PageSlab(page)) in PageSlabPfmemalloc in case we get
interrupted and the page is freed.  Thus introduce a
pfmemalloc_match_unsafe() variant that lacks the PageSlab check.
