Re: [PATCH] mm/slub: Flush virtual-slab work before cache destruction

Hi Harry,
Thank you for catching this. You're right: CONFIG_SLAB_VIRTUAL is not in
mainline.
This patch is against the public, out-of-tree SLAB_VIRTUAL feature branch:
https://github.com/thejh/linux/tree/slub-virtual-v7.2
I tested it on commit 699594e8888d (slub-virtual-v7.2-rc5), and confirmed
that the same issue is present in slub-virtual-v7.2. I intended the fix
for the feature authors to fold into a future revision of their series.
I failed to state that dependency in the subject and body, so the
standalone email misleadingly looked like a patch against upstream. That
was my mistake, sorry for the confusion.
Jann, Matteo, and Tamas, please let me know if you would prefer the fix
in a differently labeled or rebased form.
Thanks,
Felix
