[PATCH v3 7/9] slab: destroy a slab without holding any alien cache lock

2014-07-01 Thread Joonsoo Kim
I haven't heard that this alien cache lock is contended, but to reduce chance of contention would be better generally. And with this change, we can simplify complex lockdep annotation in slab code. In the following patch, it will be implemented. Acked-by: Christoph Lameter Signed-off-by: Joonsoo
