[PATCH] ext4: group info caches set to SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flags.

From: Namjae Jeon
Date: Sat Nov 19 2011 - 17:49:20 EST


If group info caches set to SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flags, the allocation is spread evenly over all the memory nodes when using cpuset.
It is useful because group info caches are long lived.
