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)
