slab: Common Kmalloc cache determination
Extract the optimized lookup functions from slub and put them into slab_common.c. Then make slab use these functions as well. Joonsoo notes that this fixes some issues with constant folding which also reduces the code size for slub. https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/20/82 Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Signed-off-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org>
