This time around I'm not doing any reordering, just trying to use your
patches as is, but adding this patch as-is produces a kernel that will
crash, no?

Yes, the init routines are called and in turn they create the slab
caches, but up to the patch "[PATCH 8/8] [PATCH v2] [CCID3]: Interface
CCID3 code with newer Loss Intervals Database" the new li slab is not
being created, no? See what I'm talking?
