This patch moves the ugly loop that determines the 'optimal' size (page
order) of cache slabs from kmem_cache_create() to a separate function

Thanks to Matthew Wilcox for the help with this patch.

Looks good, just two minor points:

+static inline size_t calculate_slab_order(kmem_cache_t *cachep, size_t size,
+ size_t align, gfp_t flags)


Unnecessary inline, see my previous mail for the explanation.

+ } else
+ left_over = calculate_slab_order(cachep, size, align, flags);



I usually add braces in this case: If braces are necessary for either the if or the else-clause, then I add braces to both parts.

Could be applied as is, or I could write a patch with both changes.
Andrew - what do you prefer?
