Subject: [PATCH 0/2] mm/slob: Some more cleanups

A couple more slob patches brought to you by the CELF project:

"Kernel dynamic memory allocation tracking and reduction" [1].

The first replaces put_page by __free_pages and it's analogous
to a recent change made at slub.
The other sets zone state to obtain slab information at /proc/meminfo.

If you feel this changes is against the minimalistic spirit of SLOB,
let me know. Any other feedback or flames, are as always welcome.

These patches apply cleanly to Pekka's slab/next or slab/for-linus.

Ezequiel Garcia (2):
 mm/slob: Use free_page instead of put_page for page-size kmalloc allocations
 mm/slob: Mark zone page state to get slab usage at /proc/meminfo
