- * The SLUB_FASTPATH path is provisional and is currently disabled if the
- * kernel is compiled with preemption or if the arch does not support
- * fast cmpxchg operations. There are a couple of coming changes that will
- * simplify matters and allow preemption. Ultimately we may end up making
- * SLUB_FASTPATH the default.
- *
- * 1. The introduction of the per cpu allocator will avoid array lookups
- *    through get_cpu_slab(). A special register can be used instead.
- *
- * 2. The introduction of per cpu atomic operations (cpu_ops) means that
- *    we can realize the logic here entirely with per cpu atomics. The
- *    per cpu atomic ops will take care of the preemption issues.
