Two patches against slub to enable deconfiguring cpu_partial support.
First one is a bug fix (Pekka please pick up this one or use Joonsoo's
earlier one).
Subject: slub: Fix object counts in acquire_slab
It seems that we were overallocating objects from the slab queues
since get_partial_node() assumed that page->inuse was undisturbed by
acquire_slab(). Save the # of objects in page->lru.next in acquire_slab()
and pass it to get_partial_node() that way.
I have a vague memory that Joonsoo also ran into this issue awhile back.
