New slab will not be able to increment the slab counter. It will check that there is no per node structure yet and then skip the inc slabs node. This suggests that a call to early_kmem_cache_node_alloc was not needed because the per node structure already existed. Lets fix that instead. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
