This series contain three aspects:
1. cleanup and code sharing between SLUB and SLAB
2. implementing accelerated bulk API for SLAB allocator
3. new API kfree_bulk()
Reviewers please review the changed order of debug calls in the SLAB
allocator, as they are changed to do the same as the SLUB allocator.
Patchset based on top Linus tree at commit afd2ff9b7e1b ("Linux 4.4").
Test module for exercising the new kfree_bulk() API is avail here:

Jesper Dangaard Brouer (11):
slub: cleanup code for kmem cgroup support to kmem_cache_free_bulk
mm/slab: move SLUB alloc hooks to common mm/slab.h
mm: fault-inject take over bootstrap kmem_cache check
slab: use slab_pre_alloc_hook in SLAB allocator shared with SLUB
mm: kmemcheck skip object if slab allocation failed
slab: use slab_post_alloc_hook in SLAB allocator shared with SLUB
slab: implement bulk alloc in SLAB allocator
slab: avoid running debug SLAB code with IRQs disabled for alloc_bulk
slab: implement bulk free in SLAB allocator
mm: new API kfree_bulk() for SLAB+SLUB allocators
mm: fix some spelling
