Yup, if it's not too much trouble Larry, I'd appreciate if you gave it
a spin before I apply the sucker. Note to regression trackers, I don't
think this should go to -stable because it depends on other patches in
mainline and there's an obvious workaround for the problem (disable
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON). Furthermore, it's very unlikely people will hit
this on production configurations anyway.
