[merged] mm-slub-restore-irqs-around-calling-new_slab.patch removed from -mm tree

[akpm]

The patch titled
     Subject: mm, slub: restore irqs around calling new_slab()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-slub-restore-irqs-around-calling-new_slab.patch

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

------------------------------------------------------
From: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz>
Subject: mm, slub: restore irqs around calling new_slab()

allocate_slab() currently re-enables irqs before calling to the page
allocator.  It depends on gfpflags_allow_blocking() to determine if it's
safe to do so.  Now we can instead simply restore irq before calling it
through new_slab().  The other caller early_kmem_cache_node_alloc() is
unaffected by this.
