Could you please elaborate a little bit?
I am not sure if I understand what the last two patches of this series
are useful for.
- Why rename variable/function/macro names?
- Why move merge related functions from slab_common.c to slub.c?
(I mean merging slab_common.c and slub.c into single file might make sense
but why move only some parts of one into the other?)
