Paul Jackson 101a50019a [PATCH] cpuset memory spread slab cache implementation
Provide the slab cache infrastructure to support cpuset memory spreading.

See the previous patches, cpuset_mem_spread, for an explanation of cpuset
memory spreading.

This patch provides a slab cache SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag.  If set in the
kmem_cache_create() call defining a slab cache, then any task marked with the
process state flag PF_MEMSPREAD will spread memory page allocations for that
cache over all the allowed nodes, instead of preferring the local (faulting)
node.

On systems not configured with CONFIG_NUMA, this results in no change to the
page allocation code path for slab caches.

On systems with cpusets configured in the kernel, but the "memory_spread"
cpuset option not enabled for the current tasks cpuset, this adds a call to a
cpuset routine and failed bit test of the processor state flag PF_SPREAD_SLAB.

For tasks so marked, a second inline test is done for the slab cache flag
SLAB_MEM_SPREAD, and if that is set and if the allocation is not
in_interrupt(), this adds a call to to a cpuset routine that computes which of
the tasks mems_allowed nodes should be preferred for this allocation.

==> This patch adds another hook into the performance critical
    code path to allocating objects from the slab cache, in the
    ____cache_alloc() chunk, below.  The next patch optimizes this
    hook, reducing the impact of the combined mempolicy plus memory
    spreading hooks on this critical code path to a single check
    against the tasks task_struct flags word.

This patch provides the generic slab flags and logic needed to apply memory
spreading to a particular slab.

A subsequent patch will mark a few specific slab caches for this placement
policy.
