Could you please elaborate a little bit?
I am not sure if I understand what the last two patches of this series
are useful for.

- Why rename variable/function/macro names?
- Why move merge related functions from slab_common.c to slub.c?
  (I mean merging slab_common.c and slub.c into single file might make sense
   but why move only some parts of one into the other?)
