Subject: [PATCH] zonefs: remove SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag usage

From: Chengming Zhou <[email protected]>

The SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag is already a no-op as of 6.8-rc1, remove
its usage so we can delete it from slab. No functional change.

Looks good, but please rework the commit message as you suggested on the btrfs
list to have more details about this change. Thanks.

Ok, Christoph Hellwig suggested me to send these patches as a single patch after
6.9-rc1 release, only need slab maintainers ACK. So I stopped bothering you. :)

Update changelog to make it clearer:

The SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag used to be implemented in SLAB, which was
removed as of v6.8-rc1, so it became a dead flag since the commit
16a1d968358a ("mm/slab: remove mm/slab.c and slab_def.h"). And the
series[1] went on to mark it obsolete to avoid confusion for users.
Here we can just remove all its users, which has no functional change.
