Subject: slub: min order when debug_guardpage_minorder > 0
X-Git-Tag: next-20111219~1^2~172
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=fd860108d30c711b0533d10baf62e4dc06e7d60d;p=karo-tx-linux.git

slub: min order when debug_guardpage_minorder > 0

Disable slub debug facilities and allocate slabs at minimal order when
debug_guardpage_minorder > 0 to increase probability to catch random
memory corruption by cpu exception.
