 * An implementation of the Slab Allocator as described in outline in;
 *      UNIX Internals: The New Frontiers by Uresh Vahalia
 *      Pub: Prentice Hall      ISBN 0-13-101908-2
 * or with a little more detail in;
 *      The Slab Allocator: An Object-Caching Kernel Memory Allocator
 *      Jeff Bonwick (Sun Microsystems).
 *      Presented at: USENIX Summer 1994 Technical Conference
 *
 * The memory is organized in caches, one cache for each object type.
 * (e.g. inode_cache, dentry_cache, buffer_head, vm_area_struct)
 * Each cache consists out of many slabs (they are small (usually one
 * page long) and always contiguous), and each slab contains multiple
 * initialized objects.
 *
 * This means, that your constructor is used only for newly allocated
 * slabs and you must pass objects with the same intializations to
 * kmem_cache_free.
 *
 * Each cache can only support one memory type (GFP_DMA, GFP_HIGHMEM,
 * normal). If you need a special memory type, then must create a new
 * cache for that memory type.
 *
 * In order to reduce fragmentation, the slabs are sorted in 3 groups:
 *   full slabs with 0 free objects
 *   partial slabs
 *   empty slabs with no allocated objects
 *
 * If partial slabs exist, then new allocations come from these slabs,
 * otherwise from empty slabs or new slabs are allocated.
 *
 * kmem_cache_destroy() CAN CRASH if you try to allocate from the cache
 * during kmem_cache_destroy(). The caller must prevent concurrent allocs.
 *
 * Each cache has a short per-cpu head array, most allocs
 * and frees go into that array, and if that array overflows, then 1/2
 * of the entries in the array are given back into the global cache.
 * The head array is strictly LIFO and should improve the cache hit rates.
 * On SMP, it additionally reduces the spinlock operations.
 *
 * The c_cpuarray may not be read with enabled local interrupts - 
 * it's changed with a smp_call_function().
 *
 * SMP synchronization:
 *  constructors and destructors are called without any locking.
 *  Several members in kmem_cache_t and struct slab never change, they
 *      are accessed without any locking.
 *  The per-cpu arrays are never accessed from the wrong cpu, no locking,
 *      and local interrupts are disabled so slab code is preempt-safe.
 *  The non-constant members are protected with a per-cache irq spinlock.
 *
 * Many thanks to Mark Hemment, who wrote another per-cpu slab patch
 * in 2000 - many ideas in the current implementation are derived from
 * his patch.
 *
 * Further notes from the original documentation:
 *
 * 11 April '97.  Started multi-threading - markhe
 *      The global cache-chain is protected by the semaphore 'cache_chain_sem'.
 *      The sem is only needed when accessing/extending the cache-chain, which
 *      can never happen inside an interrupt (kmem_cache_create(),
 *      kmem_cache_shrink() and kmem_cache_reap()).
 *
 *      At present, each engine can be growing a cache.  This should be blocked.
