The patch titled
slub: resiliency test
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
slub-core-resiliency-test.patch
This patch was dropped because it was folded into slub-core.patch
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: slub: resiliency test
From: Christoph Lameter <clameter@xxxxxxx>
Add a test that can be performed on bootup to test the recoverability
from slab corruption.
Note that 2 of those tests are potentially dangerous. Off by default
