Merge tag 'slab-for-6.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab

Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:

 - Freelist loading optimization (Chengming Zhou)

   When the per-cpu slab is depleted and a new one loaded from the cpu
   partial list, optimize the loading to avoid an irq enable/disable
   cycle. This results in a 3.5% performance improvement on the "perf
   bench sched messaging" test.

 - Kernel boot parameters cleanup after SLAB removal (Xiongwei Song)

   Due to two different main slab implementations we've had boot
   parameters prefixed either slab_ and slub_ with some later becoming
   an alias as both implementations gained the same functionality (i.e.
   slab_nomerge vs slub_nomerge). In order to eventually get rid of the
   implementation-specific names, the canonical and documented
   parameters are now all prefixed slab_ and the slub_ variants become
   deprecated but still working aliases.

 - SLAB_ kmem_cache creation flags cleanup (Vlastimil Babka)

   The flags had hardcoded #define values which became tedious and
   error-prone when adding new ones. Assign the values via an enum that
   takes care of providing unique bit numbers. Also deprecate
   SLAB_MEM_SPREAD which was only used by SLAB, so it's a no-op since
   SLAB removal. Assign it an explicit zero value. The removals of the
   flag usage are handled independently in the respective subsystems,
   with a final removal of any leftover usage planned for the next
   release.

 - Misc cleanups and fixes (Chengming Zhou, Xiaolei Wang, Zheng Yejian)

   Includes removal of unused code or function parameters and a fix of a
   memleak.
