hm, why the "RFC"?  These patches look more mature than most of the

You should have cc'ed linux-mm on these patches: nobody will have
noticed them.

slabinfo is documented a bit in Documentation/vm/slub.txt.  Please
review that file for accuracy and completeness.  It should at least
draw readers' attention to the new tools/vm/slabinfo-gnuplot.sh.
