Merge tag 'slab-for-5.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab
Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka: - Conversion of slub_debug stack traces to stackdepot, allowing more useful debugfs-based inspection for e.g. memory leak debugging. Allocation and free debugfs info now includes full traces and is sorted by the unique trace frequency. The stackdepot conversion was already attempted last year but reverted by ae14c63a9f20. The memory overhead (while not actually enabled on boot) has been meanwhile solved by making the large stackdepot allocation dynamic. The xfstest issues haven't been reproduced on current kernel locally nor in -next, so the slab cache layout changes that originally made that bug manifest were probably not the root cause. - Refactoring of dma-kmalloc caches creation. - Trivial cleanups such as removal of unused parameters, fixes and clarifications of comments. - Hyeonggon Yoo joins as a reviewer. * tag 'slab-for-5.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab: MAINTAINERS: add myself as reviewer for slab mm/slub: remove unused kmem_cache_order_objects max mm: slab: fix comment for __assume_kmalloc_alignment mm: slab: fix comment for ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN mm/slub: remove unneeded return value of slab_pad_check mm/slab_common: move dma-kmalloc caches creation into new_kmalloc_cache() mm/slub: remove meaningless node check in ___slab_alloc() mm/slub: remove duplicate flag in allocate_slab() mm/slub: remove unused parameter in setup_object*() mm/slab.c: fix comments slab, documentation: add description of debugfs files for SLUB caches mm/slub: sort debugfs output by frequency of stack traces mm/slub: distinguish and print stack traces in debugfs files mm/slub: use stackdepot to save stack trace in objects mm/slub: move struct track init out of set_track() lib/stackdepot: allow requesting early initialization dynamically mm/slub, kunit: Make slub_kunit unaffected by user specified flags mm/slab: remove some unused functions

SLUB has extensive debug support features. Disabling these can
result in significant savings in code size. This also disables
