From: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@xxxxxxx> Subject: mm, slub: validate slab from partial list or page allocator before making it cpu slab When we obtain a new slab page from node partial list or page allocator, we assign it to kmem_cache_cpu, perform some checks, and if they fail, we undo the assignment. In order to allow doing the checks without irq disabled, restructure the code so that the checks are done first, and kmem_cache_cpu.page assignment only after they pass.
