[PATCH] mm: optimize numa policy handling in slab allocator
Move the interrupt check from slab_node into ___cache_alloc and adds an "unlikely()" to avoid pipeline stalls on some architectures. Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
