This reverts commit 1f84260c, which is
suspected to be the reason for some very occasional and hard-to-trigger
crashes that usually look related to memory allocation (mostly reported
in networking, but since that's generally the most common source of
shortlived allocations - and allocations in interrupt contexts - that in
itself is not a big clue).

See for example
	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9973
	http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/19/278


etc.

One promising suspicion for what the root cause of bug is (which also
explains why it's so hard to trigger in practice) came from Eric
Dumazet:

   "I wonder how SLUB_FASTPATH is supposed to work, since it is affected
    by a classical ABA problem of lockless algo.

    cmpxchg_local(&c->freelist, object, object[c->offset]) can succeed,
    while an interrupt came (on this cpu), and several allocations were
    done, and one free was performed at the end of this interruption, so
    'object' was recycled.

    c->freelist can then contain the previous value (object), but
    object[c->offset] was changed by IRQ.

    We then put back in freelist an already allocated object."

but another reason for the revert is simply that everybody agrees that
this code was the main suspect just by virtue of the pattern of oopses.
