* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/penberg/slab-2.6:
  slub: fix slab_pad_check()

  SLUB: fix ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN cases 64 and 256
  SLUB: Fix some coding style issues
  SLUB: Drop write permission to /proc/slabinfo
  slab: remove duplicate kmem_cache_init_late() declarations
  slub: change kmem_cache->align to record the real alignment
  slub: use size and objsize orders to disable debug flags
  slub: add option to disable higher order debugging slabs

+Debugging options may require the minimum possible slab order to increase as
+a result of storing the metadata (for example, caches with PAGE_SIZE object
+sizes).  This has a higher liklihood of resulting in slab allocation errors
+in low memory situations or if there's high fragmentation of memory.  To
+switch off debugging for such caches by default, use
+
+	slub_debug=O

 In case you forgot to enable debugging on the kernel command line: It is
 possible to enable debugging manually when the kernel is up. Look at the
