[merged] mm-slub-make-locking-in-deactivate_slab-irq-safe.patch removed from -mm tree

[akpm]

The patch titled
     Subject: mm, slub: make locking in deactivate_slab() irq-safe
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-slub-make-locking-in-deactivate_slab-irq-safe.patch

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

------------------------------------------------------
From: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz>
Subject: mm, slub: make locking in deactivate_slab() irq-safe

deactivate_slab() now no longer touches the kmem_cache_cpu structure, so
it will be possible to call it with irqs enabled.  Just convert the
spin_lock calls to their irq saving/restoring variants to make it
irq-safe.

Note we now have to use cmpxchg_double_slab() for irq-safe slab_lock(),
because in some situations we don't take the list_lock, which would
disable irqs.
