- enable the cpu array for all caches

- remove the optimized implementations for quick list access - with
  cpu arrays in all caches, the list access is now rare.

- make the cpu arrays mandatory, this removes 50% of the conditional
  branches from the hot path of kmem_cache_alloc [1]

- poisoning for objects with constructors

Patch got a bit longer...

I forgot to mention this: head arrays mean that some pages can be
blocked due to objects in the head arrays, and not returned to
page_alloc.c.  The current kernel never flushes the head arrays, this
might worsen the behaviour of low memory systems.  The hunk that
flushes the arrays regularly comes next.

Details changelog: [to be read site by side with the patch]

* docu update

* "growing" is not really needed: races between grow and shrink are
  handled by retrying.  [additionally, the current kernel never
  shrinks]

* move the batchcount into the cpu array:
	the old code contained a race during cpu cache tuning:
		update batchcount [in cachep] before or after the IPI?
	And NUMA will need it anyway.

* bootstrap support: the cpu arrays are really mandatory, nothing
  works without them.  Thus a statically allocated cpu array is needed
  to for starting the allocators.

* move the full, partial & free lists into a separate structure, as a
  preparation for NUMA

* structure reorganization: now the cpu arrays are the most important
  part, not the lists.

* dead code elimination: remove "failures", nowhere read.

* dead code elimination: remove "OPTIMIZE": not implemented.  The
  idea is to skip the virt_to_page lookup for caches with on-slab slab
  structures, and use (ptr&PAGE_MASK) instead.  The details are in
  Bonwicks paper.  Not fully implemented.

* remove GROWN: kernel never shrinks a cache, thus grown is
  meaningless.

* bootstrap: starting the slab allocator is now a 3 stage process:
	- nothing works, use the statically allocated cpu arrays.
	- the smallest kmalloc allocator works, use it to allocate
		cpu arrays.
	- all kmalloc allocators work, use the default cpu array size

* register a cpu nodifier callback, and allocate the needed head
  arrays if a new cpu arrives

* always enable head arrays, even for DEBUG builds.  Poisoning and
  red-zoning now happens before an object is added to the arrays.
  Insert enable_all_cpucaches into cpucache_init, there is no need for
  seperate function.

* modifications to the debug checks due to the earlier calls of the
  dtor for caches with poisoning enabled

* poison+ctor is now supported

* squeezing 3 objects into a cacheline is hopeless, the FIXME is not
  solvable and can be removed.

* add additional debug tests: check_irq_off(), check_irq_on(),
  check_spinlock_acquired().

* move do_ccupdate_local nearer to do_tune_cpucache.  Should have
  been part of -04-drain.

* additional objects checks.  red-zoning is tricky: it's implemented
  by increasing the object size by 2*BYTES_PER_WORD.  Thus
  BYTES_PER_WORD must be added to objp before calling the destructor,
  constructor or before returing the object from alloc.  The poison
  functions add BYTES_PER_WORD internally.

* create a flagcheck function, right now the tests are duplicated in
  cache_grow [always] and alloc_debugcheck_before [DEBUG only]

* modify slab list updates: all allocs are now bulk allocs that try
  to get multiple objects at once, update the list pointers only at the
  end of a bulk alloc, not once per alloc.

* might_sleep was moved into kmem_flagcheck.

* major hotpath change:
	- cc always exists, no fallback
	- cache_alloc_refill is called with disabled interrupts,
	  and does everything to recover from an empty cpu array.
	  Far shorter & simpler __cache_alloc [inlined in both
	  kmalloc and kmem_cache_alloc]

* __free_block, free_block, cache_flusharray: main implementation of
  returning objects to the lists.  no big changes, diff lost track.

* new debug check: too early kmalloc or kmem_cache_alloc

* slightly reduce the sizes of the cpu arrays: keep the size < a
  power of 2, including batchcount, avail and now limit, for optimal
  kmalloc memory efficiency.

That's it.  I even found 2 bugs while reading: dtors and ctors for
verify were called with wrong parameters, with RED_ZONE enabled, and
some checks still assumed that POISON and ctor are incompatible.
