Please do not attach patches to emails when sending to LKML, they are
preferred to be inline. See Documentation/SubmittingPatches.

Please describe your new slub_debug=a option here as well as in an update
to Documentation/vm/slub.txt.

As I said in the first review, these need to be more descriptive: 'flags'
would be better.

cachep->flags for CONFIG_SLAB is of type unsigned int and
should_failslab() takes an unsigned long.

As I mentioned in my first review of your patch, this breaks for
CONFIG_FAILSLAB=n. Please make sure your patch compiles for the
defconfig.
