[patch 05/12] Slab defragmentation: Log information to the syslog to show defrag operations

From: Christoph Lameter
Date: Sat Jul 07 2007 - 23:09:07 EST


Dump information into the syslog during defragmentation actions to show that
something is occurring and what effect it has.

This is likely only useful in mm for testing and verification.
