Subject: [PATCH 0/5] mm, slob: Tracing accuracy improvement

Hi everyone,

This small patchset improves mm tracing accuracy, particularly on the
slob allocator.
Feedback, comments, suggestions are very welcome.

This work is part of CELF Workgroup Project:
"Kernel_dynamic_memory_allocation_tracking_and_reduction" [1]

Ezequiel Garcia (5):
 mm, slob: Trace allocation failures consistently
 mm, slob: Use only 'ret' variable for both slob object and returned pointer
 mm, util: Do strndup_user allocation directly, instead of through memdup_user
 mm, slob: Add support for kmalloc_track_caller()
 mm, slab: Remove silly function slab_buffer_size()
