[PATCH -mm 2/3] proc: move "struct pde_opener" to kmem cache

From: Alexey Dobriyan
Date: Wed Feb 14 2018 - 03:23:15 EST


"struct pde_opener" is fixed size and we can have more granular approach
to debugging.

For those who don't know, per cache SLUB poisoning and red zoning
don't work if there is at least one object allocated which is hopeless
in case of kmalloc-64 but not in case of standalone cache.
Although systemd opens 2 files from the get go, so it is hopeless after
all.
