Subject: [GIT PULL] SLAB updates for v2.6.40-rc0

Hi Linus,

Here's bunch of fixes and cleanups to the SLUB allocator. Bulk of them are
related to the lockless fastpaths but there's also some preparational work on
lockless slowpaths that will hopefully appear in v2.6.41.

                         Pekka
