[PATCH] slab: initialisation cleanup and oops fix
From: Manfred Spraul <manfred@colorfullife.com>
attached is the promised cleanup/bugfix patch for the slab bootstrap:
- kmem_cache_init & kmem_cache_sizes_init merged into one function,
called after mem_init(). It's impossible to bring slab to an operational
state without working gfp, thus the early partial initialization is not
necessary.
- g_cpucache_up set to FULL at the end of kmem_cache_init instead of the
module init call. This is a bugfix: slab was completely initialized,
just the update of the state was missing.
- some documentation for the bootstrap added.
The minimal fix for the bug is a two-liner: move g_cpucache_up=FULL from
cpucache_init to kmem_cache_sizes_init, but I want to get rid of
kmem_cache_sizes_init, too.
