Subject: [GIT PULL] SLAB fixes for v2.6.39-rc1

Hi Linus,

Here's two urgent fixes to SLUB reported by Ingo:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/3/24/245

The first one is boot-time oops on x86 with PREEMPT_NONE and CPUs that 
don't support cmpxch16b. The second one is debugobjects regression caused 
by the lockless fastpaths.

                         Pekka

The following changes since commit 6d1e9a42e7176bbce9348274784b2e5f69223936:
