SubjectRe: [PATCH 1/5] slab: rename obj_reallen to obj_size

I disagree. There are two different object length:
- the amount of memory available for the user. This is stored in
cachep->reallen.
- the amount of memory allocated internally. Due to redzoning, this can
be larger than the amount available. Stored in cachep->objsize.

With your change, cachep->objsize is the internal allocation and
obj_size(cachep) is the user visible part. This reduces the readability.
I agree that the names obj_size and reallen are bad. What about the
attached patch?
