Subject[RFC][PATCH] mm/slub: Skip CPU slab activation when debugging
Date
The per-cpu slab is designed to be the primary path for allocation in SLUB
since it assumed allocations will go through the fast path if possible.
When debugging is enabled, the fast path is disabled and per-cpu
allocations are not used. The current debugging code path still activates
the cpu slab for allocations and then immediately deactivates it. This
is useless work. When a slab is enabled for debugging, skip cpu
activation.

This is a follow on to the optimization of the debug paths for poisoning
With this I get ~2 second drop on hackbench -g 20 -l 1000 with slub_debug=P
and no noticable change with slub_debug=- .
