I don't know who should pick this, so if everyone agrees with what's in here,
please just ack them and tell me which tree I should aim for (-mm? Hocko's?)
and I'll rebase it.
memcg-devel tree is only to make development easier. Everything that
applies on top of this tree should be applicable to both -mm and
linux-next.
So the patches should go via traditional Andrew's channel.
It would be best to merge these with my patchset to extract common code
from the allocators. The modifications of individual slab allocators would
then be not necessary anymore and it would save us a lot of work.
