Merge branch 'akpm' (patches from Andrew)
Merge slub bulk allocator updates from Andrew Morton:
"This missed the merge window because I was waiting for some repairs to
come in. Nothing actually uses the bulk allocator yet and the changes
to other code paths are pretty small. And the net guys are waiting
for this so they can start merging the client code"
More comments from Jesper Dangaard Brouer:
"The kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() call, in mm/slub.c, were included in
previous kernel. The present version contains a bug. Vladimir
Davydov noticed it contained a bug, when kernel is compiled with
CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM (see commit 03ec0ed57ffc: "slub: fix kmem cgroup
bug in kmem_cache_alloc_bulk"). Plus the mem cgroup counterpart in
kmem_cache_free_bulk() were missing (see commit 033745189b1b "slub:
add missing kmem cgroup support to kmem_cache_free_bulk").
I don't consider the fix stable-material because there are no in-tree
users of the API.
But with known bugs (for memcg) I cannot start using the API in the
net-tree"
