During random test as own device to check slub account, we found some slack memory from hashtab_node(kmalloc-64). By using kzalloc(), middle of test result like below: allocated size 240768 request size 45144 slack size 195624 allocation count 3762 So, we want to use kmem_cache_zalloc() and that can reduce memory size 52byte(slack size/alloc count) per each struct.
