Subject: [GIT PULL] SLAB changes for v3.6-rc0

Hi Linus,

Please pull the latest SLAB tree from:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/penberg/linux.git slab/next

Most of the changes included are from Christoph Lameter's "common slab"
patch series that unifies common parts of SLUB, SLAB, and SLOB
allocators. The unification is needed for Glauber Costa's "kmem memcg"
work that will hopefully appear for v3.7.

Rest of the changes are fixes and speedups by various people.

			Pekka
