Merge branch 'slab/for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/penberg/linux

Pull slab update from Pekka Enberg:
 "Highlights:

  - Fix for boot-time problems on some architectures due to
    init_lock_keys() not respecting kmalloc_caches boundaries
    (Christoph Lameter)

  - CONFIG_SLUB_CPU_PARTIAL requested by RT folks (Joonsoo Kim)

  - Fix for excessive slab freelist draining (Wanpeng Li)

  - SLUB and SLOB cleanups and fixes (various people)"

I ended up editing the branch, and this avoids two commits at the end
that were immediately reverted, and I instead just applied the oneliner
fix in between myself.
