Thanks for the point, do you plan to make kmalloc_large available for extern access in a separate mainline patch?
Since kmalloc_large is statically defined in slub_def.h and when including it to seq_file.c
we have a lot of conflicting types:

You cannot separatly include slub_def.h. slab.h includes slub_def.h for
you. What problem did you try to fix by doing so?

There is a patch pending that moves kmalloc_large to slab.h. So maybe we
have to wait a merge period in order to be able to use it with other
allocators than slub.

ok, just saw in slab/for-linus branch that those stuff is reverted again..
