[PATCH] Cleanup slab headers / API to allow easy addition of new slab allocators
This is a response to an earlier discussion on linux-mm about splitting
slab.h components per allocator. Patch is against 2.6.19-git11. See
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-mm&m=116469577431008&w=2
This patch cleans up the slab header definitions. We define the common
functions of slob and slab in slab.h and put the extra definitions needed
for slab's kmalloc implementations in <linux/slab_def.h>. In order to get
a greater set of common functions we add several empty functions to slob.c
and also rename slob's kmalloc to __kmalloc.
Slob does not need any special definitions since we introduce a fallback
case. If there is no need for a slab implementation to provide its own
kmalloc mess^H^H^Hacros then we simply fall back to __kmalloc functions.
That is sufficient for SLOB.
Sort the function in slab.h according to their functionality. First the
functions operating on struct kmem_cache * then the kmalloc related
functions followed by special debug and fallback definitions.
Also redo a lot of comments.
