Subject: [PATCH] ocfs2: 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.

If I understand correctly, you are referring the following patch:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/

But it seems that the above patch is not included in mainline yet.
Or am I missing something?

I realize my commit message should explain more why it's a no-op, my bad.

The SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag used to be implemented in SLAB, which was
removed so it became a dead flag as of v6.8-rc1. That series[1]
mark it obsolete to avoid confusion for users. So here we can just
remove all its users, which has no functional changes.

Take more look at v6.8-rc1, I've found the following commit:
16a1d968358a ("mm/slab: remove mm/slab.c and slab_def.h")
It seems that after this commit, there is no user of 'SLAB_MEM_SPREAD'. So,
