The patch titled Subject: mm/slab: align cache size first before determination of OFF_SLAB candidate has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-slab-align-cache-size-first-before-determination-of-off_slab-candidate.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@xxxxxxx> Subject: mm/slab: align cache size first before determination of OFF_SLAB candidate Finding suitable OFF_SLAB candidate is more related to aligned cache size rather than original size. Same reasoning can be applied to the debug pagealloc candidate. So, this patch moves up alignment fixup to proper position. From that point, size is aligned so we can remove some alignment fixups.
