/*
 * SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU - **WARNING** READ THIS!
 *
 * This delays freeing the SLAB page by a grace period, it does _NOT_
 * delay object freeing. This means that if you do kmem_cache_free()
 * that memory location is free to be reused at any time. Thus it may
 * be possible to see another object there in the same RCU grace period.
 *
 * This feature only ensures the memory location backing the object
 * stays valid, the trick to using this is relying on an independent
 * object validation pass. Something like:
 *
 *  rcu_read_lock()
 * again:
 *  obj = lockless_lookup(key);
 *  if (obj) {
 *    if (!try_get_ref(obj)) // might fail for free objects
 *      goto again;
 *
 *    if (obj->key != key) { // not the object we expected
 *      put_ref(obj);
 *      goto again;
 *    }
 *  }
 *  rcu_read_unlock();
 *
 * See also the comment on struct slab_rcu in mm/slab.c.

 *
 * %__GFP_COLD - Request cache-cold pages instead of

 * %__GFP_HIGH - This allocation has high priority and may use emergency pools.
 *
 * %__GFP_NOFAIL - Indicate that this allocation is in no way allowed to fail

 *
 * %__GFP_NOWARN - If allocation fails, don't issue any warnings.
 *
 * %__GFP_REPEAT - If allocation fails initially, try once more before failing.
