mm, slab: make kmalloc_info[] contain all types of names
Patch series "mm, slab: Make kmalloc_info[] contain all types of names", v6. There are three types of kmalloc, KMALLOC_NORMAL, KMALLOC_RECLAIM and KMALLOC_DMA. The name of KMALLOC_NORMAL is contained in kmalloc_info[].name, but the names of KMALLOC_RECLAIM and KMALLOC_DMA are dynamically generated by kmalloc_cache_name(). Patch1 predefines the names of all types of kmalloc to save the time spent dynamically generating names. These changes make sense, and the time spent by new_kmalloc_cache() has been reduced by approximately 36.3%. Time spent by new_kmalloc_cache() (CPU cycles) 5.3-rc7 66264 5.3-rc7+patch 42188 This patch (of 3): There are three types of kmalloc, KMALLOC_NORMAL, KMALLOC_RECLAIM and KMALLOC_DMA. The name of KMALLOC_NORMAL is contained in kmalloc_info[].name, but the names of KMALLOC_RECLAIM and KMALLOC_DMA are dynamically generated by kmalloc_cache_name(). This patch predefines the names of all types of kmalloc to save the time spent dynamically generating names. Besides, remove the kmalloc_cache_name() that is no longer used.
