Christoph Lameter 5af6083990 slab allocators: Remove obsolete SLAB_MUST_HWCACHE_ALIGN
This patch was recently posted to lkml and acked by Pekka.

The flag SLAB_MUST_HWCACHE_ALIGN is

1. Never checked by SLAB at all.

2. A duplicate of SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN for SLUB

3. Fulfills the role of SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN for SLOB.

The only remaining use is in sparc64 and ppc64 and their use there
reflects some earlier role that the slab flag once may have had. If
its specified then SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN is also specified.

The flag is confusing, inconsistent and has no purpose.

Remove it.

/*
* SLOB Allocator: Simple List Of Blocks
*
* Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> 12/30/03
*
* How SLOB works:
*
* The core of SLOB is a traditional K&R style heap allocator, with
* support for returning aligned objects. The granularity of this
* allocator is 8 bytes on x86, though it's perhaps possible to reduce
* this to 4 if it's deemed worth the effort. The slob heap is a
* singly-linked list of pages from __get_free_page, grown on demand
* and allocation from the heap is currently first-fit.
*
* Above this is an implementation of kmalloc/kfree. Blocks returned
* from kmalloc are 8-byte aligned and prepended with a 8-byte header.
* If kmalloc is asked for objects of PAGE_SIZE or larger, it calls
* __get_free_pages directly so that it can return page-aligned blocks
* and keeps a linked list of such pages and their orders. These
* objects are detected in kfree() by their page alignment.
*
* SLAB is emulated on top of SLOB by simply calling constructors and
* destructors for every SLAB allocation. Objects are returned with
* the 8-byte alignment unless the SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN flag is
* set, in which case the low-level allocator will fragment blocks to
* create the proper alignment. Again, objects of page-size or greater
* are allocated by calling __get_free_pages. As SLAB objects know
* their size, no separate size bookkeeping is necessary and there is
* essentially no allocation space overhead.
