This is the total # of slabs that mismatches. Some slabs are not on the
partial list and are neither on the full list since they are currently
on the per cpu partial lists. Thats an accounting issue introduced in 3.2
with the per cpu pages. Need to find some way to count the per cpu partial
pages correctly. Could just force the per cpu pages to be empty?


Subject: Switch per cpu partial page support off for debugging

Otherwise we have accounting issues.
