[PATCH v6 01/33] mm, slub: don't call flush_all() from slab_debug_trace_open()

From: Vlastimil Babka <hidden>
Date: 2021-09-04 10:50:17
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: memory management, slab allocator, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, Vlastimil Babka, Harry Yoo, Linus Torvalds

slab_debug_trace_open() can only be called on caches with SLAB_STORE_USER flag
and as with all slub debugging flags, such caches avoid cpu or percpu partial
slabs altogether, so there's nothing to flush.
