[PATCH v3 0/2] mm/slub: batch partial slab list operations

[Hao Li]

The loops in get_partial_node_bulk() and __refill_objects_node() perform
individual list operations for each slab. This patchset optimize this.

Patch 1 is a cleanup patch that wraps duplicated code into helper
functions.

Patch 2 reduces the number of list operations by processing slabs in
batches, thereby minimizing the time spent inside the critical section.

Changes in v3:
- Reorder the two patches for better logical flow. (Thanks Vlastimil)
- Introduce set_node_partial_state for symmetry. (Thanks Vlastimil)

Changes in v2:
- Patch 1 applies the same optimization to __refill_objects_node. (Thanks
  Harry and Vlastimil)
- Patch 2 introduces a helper to wraps duplicated code. (Thanks Harry)

Hao Li (2):
  mm/slub: introduce helpers for node partial slab state
  mm/slub: detach and reattach partial slabs in batch
