The mininum objects per slab is calculated based on the number of processors
that may come online.

Processors    min_objects
---------------------------
1             8
2             12
4             16
8             20
16            24
32            28
64            32
1024          48
4096          56

The higher the number of processors the large the order sizes used for various
slab caches will become. This has been shown to address the performance issues
in hackbench on 16p etc.

The calculation is only performed if slub_min_objects is zero (default). If one
specifies a slub_min_objects on boot then that setting is taken.

As suggested by Zhang Yanmin's performance tests on 16-core Tigerton, use the
formula '4 * (fls(nr_cpu_ids) + 1)':

  ./hackbench 100 process 2000:

  1) 2.6.25-rc6slab: 23.5 seconds
  2) 2.6.25-rc7SLUB+slub_min_objects=20: 31 seconds
  3) 2.6.25-rc7SLUB+slub_min_objects=24: 23.5 seconds

We can now fallback to order 0 slabs. So set the slub_max_order to
PAGE_CACHE_ORDER_COSTLY but keep the slub_min_objects at 4. This
will mostly preserve the orders used in 2.6.25. F.e. The 2k kmalloc slab
will use order 1 allocs and the 4k kmalloc slab order 2.

Since we now have total_objects counter per node use that to
check for the presence of any objects. The loop over all cpu slabs
is not that useful since any cpu slab would require an object allocation
first. So drop that.

Makes /sys/kernel/slab/<slabname>/order writable. The allocation
order of a slab cache can then be changed dynamically during runtime.
This can be used to override the objects per slabs value establisheed
with the slub_min_objects setting that was manually specified or
calculated on bootup.

The changes of the slab order can occur while allocate_slab() runs.
Allocate slab needs the order and the number of slab objects that
are both changed by the change of order. Both are put into
a single word (struct kmem_cache_order_objects). They can then
be atomically updated and retrieved.

There is now a generic method of falling back to a slab page of minimal
order. No need anymore for the fallback to kmalloc_large().

If any higher order allocation fails then fall back the smallest order
necessary to contain at least one object. This enables fallback for all
allocations to order 0 pages. The fallback will waste more memory (objects
will not fit neatly) and the fallback slabs will be not as efficient as larger
slabs since they contain less objects.

Note that SLAB also depends on order 1 allocations for some slabs that waste
too much memory if forced into PAGE_SIZE'd page. SLUB now can now deal with
failing order 1 allocs which SLAB cannot do.

Add a new field min that will contain the objects for the smallest possible order
for a slab cache.

Change the statistics to consider that slabs of the same slabcache
can have different number of objects in them since they may be of
different order.

Provide a new sysfs field

	total_objects

which shows the total objects that the allocated slabs of a slabcache
could hold.

Add a max field that holds the largest slab order that was ever used
for a slab cache.

Pack the order and the number of objects into a single word.
This saves some memory in the kmem_cache_structure and more importantly
allows us to fetch both values atomically.

Later the slab orders become runtime configurable and we need to fetch these
two items together in order to properly allocate a slab and initialize its
objects.

Fix the race by fetching the order and the number of objects in one word.

Split the inuse field up to be able to store the number of objects in this
page in the page struct as well. Necessary if we want to have pages of
various orders for a slab. Also avoids touching struct kmem_cache cachelines in
__slab_alloc().

Update diagnostic code to check the number of objects and make sure that
the number of objects always stays within the bounds of a 16 bit unsigned
integer.

free_list looked a bit screwy so here is an attempt to clean it up.

free_list is is only used for freeing partial lists. We do not need to return a
parameter if we decrement nr_partial within the function which allows a
simplification of the whole thing.

The current version modifies nr_partial outside of the list_lock which is
technically not correct. It was only ok because we should be the only user of
this slab cache at this point.

As pointed out by Ingo, the SLUB warning of calling kmem_cache_destroy()
with cache that still has objects triggers in practice. So turn this
WARN_ON() into a nice SLUB specific error message to avoid people
confusing it to a SLUB bug.

RFC 2203 requires the server to drop the request if it believes the
RPCSEC_GSS context is out of sequence. The problem is that we have no way
on the client to know why the server dropped the request. In order to avoid
spinning forever trying to resend the request, the safe approach is
therefore to always invalidate the RPCSEC_GSS context on every major
timeout.

Frank Bennett reported that ivtv was causing skype to crash. With help
from one of their developers he showed it was a kernel problem.
VIDIOCGCAP copies a name into a fixed length buffer - ivtv uses names
that are too long and does not truncate them so corrupts a few bytes of
the app data area.

Possibly the names also want trimming but for now this should fix the
corruption case.
