Currently we hand off PAGE_SIZEd kmallocs to the page allocator in the mistaken belief that the page allocator can handle these allocations effectively. However, measurements indicate a minimum slowdown by the factor of 8 (and that is only SMP, NUMA is much worse) vs the slub fastpath which causes regressions in tbench. Increase the number of kmalloc caches by one so that we again handle 4k kmallocs directly from slub. 4k page buffering for the page allocator will be performed by slub like done by slab. At some point the page allocator fastpath should be fixed. A lot of the kernel would benefit from a faster ability to allocate a single page. If that is done then the 4k allocs may again be forwarded to the page allocator and this patch could be reverted.
