Message-Id: <20071001183316.7A9B.Y-GOTO@jp.fujitsu.com>

Subject: [Patch / 002](memory hotplug) Callback function to create kmem_cache_node.
This is to make kmem_cache_nodes of all SLUBs for new node when
memory-hotadd is called. This fixes panic due to access NULL pointer at
discard_slab() after memory hot-add.
If pages on the new node available, slub can use it before making
new kmem_cache_nodes. So, this callback should be called
BEFORE pages on the node are available.
