This change isn't really necessary for correctness, but it prevents lockdep
from getting upset and then disabling itself.

      Add parameter to add_partial to avoid having two functions · 7c2e132c
      Christoph Lameter authored 
      Add a parameter to add_partial instead of having separate functions.  The
parameter allows a more detailed control of where the slab pages is placed in
the partial queues.

If we put slabs back to the front then they are likely immediately used for
allocations.  If they are put at the end then we can maximize the time that
the partial slabs spent without being subject to allocations.

When deactivating slab we can put the slabs that had remote objects freed (we
can see that because objects were put on the freelist that requires locks) to
them at the end of the list so that the cachelines of remote processors can
cool down.  Slabs that had objects from the local cpu freed to them (objects
exist in the lockless freelist) are put in the front of the list to be reused
ASAP in order to exploit the cache hot state of the local cpu.

Patch seems to slightly improve tbench speed (1-2%).

      SLUB: rename defrag to remote_node_defrag_ratio · 9824601e
      Christoph Lameter authored 
      The NUMA defrag works by allocating objects from partial slabs on remote
nodes.  Rename it to

	remote_node_defrag_ratio

to be clear about this.

      SLUB: Fix sysfs refcounting · 151c602f
      Christoph Lameter authored 
      If CONFIG_SYSFS is set then free the kmem_cache structure when
sysfs tells us its okay.

Otherwise there is the danger (as pointed out by
Al Viro) that sysfs thinks the kobject still exists after
kmem_cache_destroy() removed it.
