No, sorry for not being more explicit about this. Meant that Tom's patch addresses the performance issue in the reorderbuffer.c to a good degree (i.e. gets rid of the quadratic cost, even though constants are higher than w/ your patches). As the patch here is a lot smaller, it seems like a better choice for the back-branches than backporting slab.c/generation.c.
