[v1,1/2] mm: Reorganize SLAB freelist randomization

Commit Message

Thomas Garnier May 26, 2016, 8:37 p.m. UTC

This commit reorganizes the previous SLAB freelist randomization to
prepare for the SLUB implementation. It moves functions that will be
shared to slab_common.

The entropy functions are changed to align with the SLUB implementation,
now using get_random_(int|long) functions. These functions were chosen
because they provide a bit more entropy early on boot and better
performance when specific arch instructions are not available.
