[PATCH] NUMA slab locking fixes: irq disabling from cahep->spinlock to l3 lock
Earlier, we had to disable on chip interrupts while taking the cachep->spinlock because, at cache_grow, on every addition of a slab to a slab cache, we incremented colour_next which was protected by the cachep->spinlock, and cache_grow could occur at interrupt context. Since, now we protect the per-node colour_next with the node's list_lock, we do not need to disable on chip interrupts while taking the per-cache spinlock, but we just need to disable interrupts when taking the per-node kmem_list3 list_lock.
