Re: [patch] SLQB slab allocator (try 2)

What could be changed in the patch is to set SLUB_MAX_SIZE depending on
the page size of the underlying architecture.
#define SLUB_MAX_SIZE MAX(PAGE_SIZE, 8192)
So on 4k architectures SLUB_MAX_SIZE is set to 8192 and on 16k or 64k
arches its set to PAGE_SIZE.
And then define
#define SLUB_MAX_KMALLOC_ORDER get_order(SLUB_MAX_SIZE)
which will be 1 on 4k arches and 0 on higher sized arches.
Then also the kmalloc array would need to be dimensioned using
SLUB_MAX_KMALLOC_ORDER.
The definition of SLUB_NAX_KMALLOC_ORDER could be a bit challenging for
the C compiler.
