Guys I implemented kmem_cache_destroy() long ago!!
And as I described it's the wrong answer to this problem, instead kmem_cache_create needs to be made more intelligent. Adding a new interface for cache destruction requires changes to all users of SLAB, making SLAB creation more intelligent does not.
This is why your patch was not applied.
I find it amusing how you even quote my email where I describe how it should be fixed, and then complain about your approach not being looked at.
