Subject: [RFC 12/26] mm, slub: restore irqs around calling new_slab()
Date:   Tue, 25 May 2021 01:39:32 +0200
Message-Id: <20210524233946.20352-13-vbabka@suse.cz>
In-Reply-To: <20210524233946.20352-1-vbabka@suse.cz>

allocate_slab() currently re-enables irqs before calling to the page allocator.
It depends on gfpflags_allow_blocking() to determine if it's safe to do so.
Now we can instead simply restore irq before calling it through new_slab().
The other caller early_kmem_cache_node_alloc() is unaffected
