I like it! I only skimmed through the SLUB changes but they seemed
reasonable enough. What kind of performance hit are we taking when
memcg configuration option is enabled but the feature is disabled?

Thanks Pekka.
Well, I didn't took any numbers, because I don't consider the whole work
any close to final form, but I wanted people to comment anyway.
In particular, I intend to use the same trick I used for tcp sock
buffers here for this case - (static_branch()), so the performance hit
should come from two pointers in the kmem_cache structure - and I
believe it is possible to remove one of them.
I can definitely measure when I implement that, but I think it is
reasonable to expect not that much of a hit.
