[PATCH v2 3/7] memcg, slab: separate memcg vs root cache creation paths

From: Vladimir Davydov
Date: Mon Feb 03 2014 - 10:56:26 EST


Memcg-awareness turned kmem_cache_create() into a dirty interweaving of
memcg-only and except-for-memcg calls. To clean this up, let's create a
separate function handling memcg caches creation. Although this will
result in the two functions having several hunks of practically the same
code, I guess this is the case when readability fully covers the cost of
code duplication.
