Hmm. The patch there looks correct, and anybody who relies on slab
constructors is crazy.

That email from April says it should go into stable, but it never even
went upstream..

Adding Willy to the cc, for comments, since he's been active there and
is probably the maintainer even if the MAINTAINERS file doesn't say
so..
