I see this has been merged as 4fdccdfbb465, but it seems pretty pointless 
unless you export the data to userspace with the necessary STAT_ATTR() and 
addition in slab_attrs.


slub: export CMPXCHG_DOUBLE_CPU_FAIL to userspace

4fdccdfbb465 ("slub: Add statistics for this_cmpxchg_double failures") 
added CMPXCHG_DOUBLE_CPU_FAIL to show how many times 
this_cpu_cmpxchg_double has failed, but it also needs to be exported to 
userspace for consumption.

This will always be 0 if CONFIG_CMPXCHG_LOCAL is disabled.

Right that slipped into a later patch that only dealt with statistics. But
I will fold that into the earlier patch.

I think since CMPXCHG_DOUBLE_CPU_FAIL is already merged as 4fdccdfbb465 
that my patch should be merged to export it?

Not sure what patch you intend to fold this into.

Sure. I have no objections.

Into the statistics patch for the lockless slowpaths.
