The SLUB cache merges caches with the same size and alignment and there was long standing bug with this behavior: - create the cache named "foo" - create the cache named "bar" (which is merged with "foo") - delete the cache named "foo" (but it stays allocated because "bar" uses it) - create the cache named "foo" again - it fails because the name "foo" is already used That bug was fixed in commit 69461747 ("slab_common: fix the check for duplicate slab names") by not warning on duplicate cache names when the SLUB subsystem is used. Recently, cache merging was implemented the with SLAB subsystem too, in 12220dea ("mm/slab: support slab merge")). Therefore we need stop checking for duplicate names even for the SLAB subsystem. This patch fixes the bug by removing the check.
