[patch 18/87] mm: SLUB fix reclaim_state

From: Greg KH
Date: Tue Jun 09 2009 - 06:19:56 EST


2.6.29-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Nick Piggin <npiggin@xxxxxxx>

commit 1eb5ac6466d4be7b15b38ce3ab709600f1bc891f upstream.

SLUB does not correctly account reclaim_state.reclaimed_slab, so it will
break memory reclaim. Account it like SLAB does.
