corrupt mm-slab-wrap-functions

Hello!

I just tried to use the latest RT-patch from
https://rt.wiki.kernel.org (patch-3.10.10-rt7.patch) and found a
corrupt patch file "mm-slab-wrap-functions.patch"
For example at line 165 in the attached patch file, the line had been
duplicated. So I cannot trust the patch at all. :(

I had many other errors concerning raw_spinlock_t vs spin_lock_t and
cachep->nodelists, ... maybe they all just come from a patch-creation
failure.
I'm afraid there are more patch-files corrupt, since I cannot build
with slub too.

I've searched through all previous patches, back to
patch-3.10.4-rt1.patch, but all had the same corrupt line :(

I think there is no bug in the original code but only an error
happened when the patches were created since 3.10 Kernel.

The patch 3.8.13.7-rt18 is the youngest patch that does not have this
corrupt line.


Many thanks for any answers and best regards

Andreas
