From 441c7e0a2ed38827b48b907bd1fa29faba2017a3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pekka Enberg Date: Wed, 10 Jun 2009 20:05:53 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] bootmem: use slab if bootmem is no longer available As a preparation for initializing the slab allocator early, make sure the bootmem allocator does not crash and burn if someone calls it after slab is up; otherwise we'd need a flag day for switching to early slab.
