Done, patch available at:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/acme/v2.5/2.5.2-pre1/
sock.cleanup-2.5.2-pre1.bz2
Current state of /proc/slabinfo:
[acme@rama2 acme]$ grep sock /proc/slabinfo
unix_sock 7 20 400 1 2 1 : 17 572 2 0 0
raw4_sock 0 10 376 0 1 1 : 1 3 1 0 0
udp_sock 6 10 372 1 1 1 : 7 31 1 0 0
tcp_sock 13 15 800 3 3 1 : 14 47 3 0 0
sock 0 0 336 0 0 1 : 0 0 0 0 0
TODO: do the same for IPv6, that now has only one slabcache for all its
protocols.
