mm, slub: splice cpu and page freelists in deactivate_slab()
In deactivate_slab() we currently move all but one objects on the cpu freelist to the page freelist one by one using the costly cmpxchg_double() operation. Then we unfreeze the page while moving the last object on page freelist, with a final cmpxchg_double(). This can be optimized to avoid the cmpxchg_double() per object. Just count the objects on cpu freelist (to adjust page->inuse properly) and also remember the last object in the chain. Then splice page->freelist to the last object and effectively add the whole cpu freelist to page->freelist while unfreezing the page, with a single cmpxchg_double().
