Difficult to see what is meant. I think that my set mirrors in a way what Arnaldo
does in the spirit, but not in detail. Since in the end the approach is different.
But the principles are similar:
* also use explicit allocation/deallocation routines
* also put the slab allocation into the module, as Arnaldos patch
* effectively the same functions are removed in my changeset
* as discussed earlier, modularity of calc_first_li is achieved by using a function pointer.
==> wonder whether I should add `__read_mostly' to the slab declaration, but that is
a smaller issue. I will think about this.
The main difference is that in my changeset further functionality is implemented which
intersects with the work Arnaldo has been doing.
