[PATCH 0/5] mm, slob: Tracing accuracy improvement

[Ezequiel Garcia]

Hi everyone,

This small patchset improves mm tracing accuracy, particularly on the
slob allocator.
Feedback, comments, suggestions are very welcome.

This work is part of CELF Workgroup Project:
"Kernel_dynamic_memory_allocation_tracking_and_reduction" [1]

Ezequiel Garcia (5):
 mm, slob: Trace allocation failures consistently
 mm, slob: Use only 'ret' variable for both slob object and returned pointer
 mm, util: Do strndup_user allocation directly, instead of through memdup_user
 mm, slob: Add support for kmalloc_track_caller()
 mm, slab: Remove silly function slab_buffer_size()
