Merge tag 'slab-for-7.2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab

Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:

 - Support for "allocation tokens" (currently available in Clang 22+)
   for smarter partitioning of kmalloc caches based on the allocated
   object type, which can be enabled instead of the "random"
   per-caller-address-hash partitioning.

   It should be able to deterministically separate types containing a
   pointer from those that do not (Marco Elver)

 - Improvements and simplification of the kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() and
   mempool_alloc_bulk() API. This includes adaptation of callers
   (Christoph Hellwig)

 - Performance improvements and cleanups related mostly to sheaves
   refill (Hao Li, Shengming Hu, Vlastimil Babka)

 - Several fixups for the slabinfo tool (Xuewen Wang)
