From e153362a50a34439718a938a851bba977116e19a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christoph Lameter Date: Fri, 15 Feb 2008 23:45:24 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] slub: Remove objsize check in kmem_cache_flags() There is no page->offset anymore and also no associated limit on the number of objects. The page->offset field was removed for 2.6.24. So the check in kmem_cache_flags() is now also obsolete (should have been dropped earlier, somehow a hunk vanished).
