[PATCH 1/2] slab: do ClearSlabPfmemalloc() for all pages of slab

From: Joonsoo Kim
Date: Sat Aug 25 2012 - 10:12:28 EST


Now, we just do ClearSlabPfmemalloc() for first page of slab
when we clear SlabPfmemalloc flag. It is a problem because we sometimes
test flag of page which is not first page of slab in __ac_put_obj().

So add code to do ClearSlabPfmemalloc for all pages of slab.
