This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: SLUB Debug: fix check for super sized slabs (>512k 64bit, >256k  32bit)
From: Christoph Lameter <clameter@xxxxxxx>

The check for super sized slabs where we can no longer move the free
pointer behind the object for debugging purposes etc is accessing a field
that is not setup yet.  We must use objsize here since the size of the slab
has not been determined yet.

The effect of this is that a global slab shrink via "slabinfo -s" will show
errors about offsets being wrong if booted with slub_debug.  Potentially
there are other troubles with huge slabs under slub_debug because the
calculated free pointer offset is truncated.
