CPU partial support can introduce level of indeterminism that is not
wanted in certain context (like a realtime kernel). Make it
configurable.

At the moment, kmalloc() isn't even listed in the kernel API
documentation (DocBook/kernel-api.html after running "make htmldocs").

Another issue is that the documentation for kmalloc_node()
refers to kcalloc()'s documentation to describe its 'flags' parameter,
while kcalloc() refered to kmalloc()'s documentation, which doesn't exist!

This patch is a proposed fix for this. It also removes the documentation
for kmalloc() in include/linux/slob_def.h which isn't included to
generate the documentation anyway. This way, kmalloc() is described
in only one place.

Some architectures (e.g. powerpc built with CONFIG_PPC_256K_PAGES=y
CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER=11) get PAGE_SHIFT + MAX_ORDER > 26.

In 3.10 kernels, CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y with PAGE_SHIFT + MAX_ORDER > 26 makes
init_lock_keys() dereference beyond kmalloc_caches[26].
This leads to an unbootable system (kernel panic at initializing SLAB)
if one of kmalloc_caches[26...PAGE_SHIFT+MAX_ORDER-1] is not NULL.

Fix this by making sure that init_lock_keys() does not dereference beyond
kmalloc_caches[26] arrays.

As Steven Rostedt has pointer out: rescheduling could occur on a
different processor after the determination of the per cpu pointer and
before the tid is retrieved. This could result in allocation from the
wrong node in slab_alloc().

The effect is much more severe in slab_free() where we could free to the
freelist of the wrong page.

The window for something like that occurring is pretty small but it is
possible.

The variables accessed in slab_alloc are volatile and therefore
the page pointer passed to node_match can be NULL. The processing
of data in slab_alloc is tentative until either the cmpxhchg
succeeds or the __slab_alloc slowpath is invoked. Both are
able to perform the same allocation from the freelist.

Check for the NULL pointer in node_match.

A false positive will lead to a retry of the loop in __slab_alloc.

There is a subtle bug when calculating a number of acquired objects.

Currently, we calculate "available = page->objects - page->inuse",
after acquire_slab() is called in get_partial_node().

In acquire_slab() with mode = 1, we always set new.inuse = page->objects.
So,

	acquire_slab(s, n, page, object == NULL);

	if (!object) {
		c->page = page;
		stat(s, ALLOC_FROM_PARTIAL);
		object = t;
		available = page->objects - page->inuse;

		!!! availabe is always 0 !!!
	...

Therfore, "available > s->cpu_partial / 2" is always false and
we always go to second iteration.
This patch correct this problem.

After that, we don't need return value of put_cpu_partial().
So remove it.

After we create a boot cache, we may allocate from it until it is bootstraped.
This will move the page from the partial list to the cpu slab list. If this
happens, the loop:

	list_for_each_entry(p, &n->partial, lru)

that we use to scan for all partial pages will yield nothing, and the pages
will keep pointing to the boot cpu cache, which is of course, invalid. To do
that, we should flush the cache to make sure that the cpu slab is back to the
partial list.

The one thing that is different in slab is that the 32 byte
cache will also be created for arches that have page sizes
larger than 4K. There are numerous smaller allocations that
SLOB and SLUB can handle better because of their support for
smaller allocation sizes so lets keep the 32 byte slab also
