SLUB sets number of minimum partial slabs for node (min_partial) using set_min_partial(). SLUB holds at least min_partial slabs even if they're empty to avoid excessive use of page allocator. set_min_partial() limits value of min_partial limits value of min_partial MIN_PARTIAL and MAX_PARTIAL. As set_min_partial() can be called by min_partial_store() too, Only limit value of min_partial in kmem_cache_open() so that it can be changed to value that a user wants.
