This was posted on Aug 28 and fixes an issue that could cause troubles
when slab caches >=128k are created.
http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=118798149918424&w=2
Currently we simply add the debug flags unconditional when checking for a
matching slab. This creates issues for sysfs processing when slabs exist
that are exempt from debugging due to their huge size or because only a
subset of slabs was selected for debugging.
We need to only add the flags if kmem_cache_open() would also add them.
Create a function to calculate the flags that would be set
if the cache would be opened and use that function to determine
the flags before looking for a compatible slab.
