The patch titled
Subject: mm/slub.c: avoid slub allocation while holding list_lock
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-avoid-slub-allocation-while-holding-list_lock.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

Subject: mm/slub.c: avoid slub allocation while holding list_lock
If we are already under list_lock, don't call kmalloc(). Otherwise we
will run into a deadlock because kmalloc() also tries to grab the same
lock.
Fix the problem by using a static bitmap instead.
WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
--------------------------------------------
mount-encrypted/4921 is trying to acquire lock:
(&(&n->list_lock)->rlock){-.-.}, at: ___slab_alloc+0x104/0x437
but task is already holding lock:
(&(&n->list_lock)->rlock){-.-.}, at: __kmem_cache_shutdown+0x81/0x3cb
other info that might help us debug this:
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0
----
lock(&(&n->list_lock)->rlock);
lock(&(&n->list_lock)->rlock);
*** DEADLOCK ***
