In mm/slab.c kmem_cache_init() at /* 4) Replace the bootstrap head arrays */ it kmallocs *ptr and memcpy's with sizeof(struct arraycache_init). Is this correct or should it maybe be with sizeof(struct arraycache) instead? Please review, i.e. this change: --- It appears we allocated and copied too much.
