b3218a79aa [PATCH] char: kill unneeded memsets
char, another tmp_buf cleanup

No need to allocate one page as a side buffer.  It's no more used.  Clean this
(de)allocs of this useless memory pages in char subtree.

1d2c8eea69 [PATCH] slab: clean up leak tracking ifdefs a little bit
- rename ____kmalloc to kmalloc_track_caller so that people have a chance
  to guess what it does just from it's name.  Add a comment describing it
  for those who don't.  Also move it after kmalloc in slab.h so people get
  less confused when they are just looking for kmalloc - move things around
  in slab.c a little to reduce the ifdef mess.

Chen, Kenneth W
fe1668ae5b [PATCH] enforce proper tlb flush in unmap_hugepage_range
Spotted by Hugh that hugetlb page is free'ed back to global pool before
performing any TLB flush in unmap_hugepage_range().  This potentially allow
threads to abuse free-alloc race condition.

The generic tlb gather code is unsuitable to use by hugetlb, I just open
coded a page gathering list and delayed put_page until tlb flush is
performed.

e80ee884ae [PATCH] mm: micro optimise zone_watermark_ok
Having min be a signed quantity means gcc can't turn high latency divides
into shifts.  There happen to be two such divides for GFP_ATOMIC (ie.
networking, ie.  important) allocations, one of which depends on the other.
 Fixing this makes code smaller as a bonus.

Shame on somebody (probably me).
