Subject: [PATCH v3 20/21] mm/slub: remove DEACTIVATE_TO_* stat items
Date: Fri, 16 Jan 2026 15:40:40 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260116-sheaves-for-all-v3-20-5595cb000772@suse.cz> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260116-sheaves-for-all-v3-0-5595cb000772@suse.cz>
The cpu slabs and their deactivations were removed, so remove the unused
stat items. Weirdly enough the values were also used to control
__add_partial() adding to head or tail of the list, so replace that with
a new enum add_mode, which is cleaner.
