Subject[PATCH] mm/slub: Detach node lock from counting free objects
Date
The lock, protecting the node partial list, is taken when couting the free
objects resident in that list. It introduces locking contention when the
page(s) is moved between CPU and node partial lists in allocation path
on another CPU. So reading "/proc/slabinfo" can possibily block the slab
allocation on another CPU for a while, 200ms in extreme cases. If the
slab object is to carry network packet, targeting the far-end disk array,
it causes block IO jitter issue.

This fixes the block IO jitter issue by caching the total inuse objects in
the node in advance. The value is retrieved without taking the node partial
list lock on reading "/proc/slabinfo".
