The iproute2 ss command reads /proc/slabinfo as way to get estimates for number of open sockets etc. This has been broken since slab merging went in 3.17. Mark those kmem caches's as non mergeable with new flag. The TCP caches's are already not mergeable because of the RCU flags, but someone might change that and cause surprise later.
