Subject: [PATCH 1/3] mm/slab: use percpu allocator for cpu cache
Because of chicken and egg problem, initializaion of SLAB is really
complicated. We need to allocate cpu cache through SLAB to make
the kmem_cache works, but, before initialization of kmem_cache,
allocation through SLAB is impossible.
On the other hand, SLUB does initialization with more simple way. It
uses percpu allocator to allocate cpu cache so there is no chicken and
egg problem.
So, this patch try to use percpu allocator in SLAB. This simplify
initialization step in SLAB so that we could maintain SLAB code more
easily.
>From my testing, there is no performance difference.
