commit 0a31bd5f2bbb ("KMEM_CACHE(): simplify slab cache creation")
introduces a new macro.
Use the new KMEM_CACHE() macro instead of direct kmem_cache_create
to simplify the creation of SLAB caches.

This seems reasonable to me, unless I see any objections I can pull
this via the LSM tree next week.

Actually, never mind, the original posting has some non-ASCII junk in
the patch and I'm not able to import it cleanly.
Thanks for reply.

I checked the patch with the checkpatch.pl script and applied it to
another machine to compile and found no issues.
Seems ok to me, what should I do next to clean up that non-ASCII junk.

And i use :perl -ne 'print if /[^[:ascii:]]/'
0001-cred-Use-KMEM_CACHE-instead-of-kmem_cache_create.patch seems ok too.

Look at the message when in the mailing list archive (link below) and
you'll notice the extra characters:

Thanks for your reply. I'll try to figure out what happened and resend a new one.

... and then look at a correctly submitted patch:
