There are numerous broken references to Documentation files (in other
Documentation files, in comments, etc.). These broken references are
caused by typo's in the references, and by renames or removals of the
Documentation files. Some broken references are simply odd.
Fix these broken references, sometimes by dropping the irrelevant text
they were part of.

This patch allow to inject faults only for specific slabs.
In order to preserve default behavior cache filter is off by
default (all caches are faulty).
One may define specific set of slabs like this:
# mark skbuff_head_cache as faulty
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/slab/skbuff_head_cache/failslab
# Turn on cache filter (off by default)
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/failslab/cache-filter
# Turn on fault injection
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/failslab/times
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/failslab/probability

When debugging is enabled, slub requires that additional metadata be
stored in slabs for certain options: SLAB_RED_ZONE, SLAB_POISON, and
SLAB_STORE_USER.
Consequently, it may require that the minimum possible slab order needed
to allocate a single object be greater when using these options. The
most notable example is for objects that are PAGE_SIZE bytes in size.
Higher minimum slab orders may cause page allocation failures when oom or
under heavy fragmentation.
This patch adds a new slub_debug option, which disables debugging by
default for caches that would have resulted in higher minimum orders:
slub_debug=O
When this option is used on systems with 4K pages, kmalloc-4096, for
example, will not have debugging enabled by default even if
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON is defined because it would have resulted in a
order-1 minimum slab order.

Remove all clameter@sgi.com addresses from the kernel tree since they will
become invalid on June 27th. Change my maintainer email address for the
slab allocators to cl@linux-foundation.org (which will be the new email
address for the future).

Changes the error reporting format to loosely follow lockdep.
If data corruption is detected then we generate the following lines:
============================================
BUG <slab-cache>: <problem>
--------------------------------------------
INFO: <more information> [possibly multiple times]
<object dump>
FIX <slab-cache>: <remedial action>
This also adds some more intelligence to the data corruption detection. Its
now capable of figuring out the start and end.
Add a comment on how to configure SLUB so that a production system may
continue to operate even though occasional slab corruption occur through
a misbehaving kernel component. See "Emergency operations" in
Documentation/vm/slub.txt.

Add a new configuration variable
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON
If set then the kernel will be booted by default with slab debugging
switched on. Similar to CONFIG_SLAB_DEBUG. By default slab debugging
is available but must be enabled by specifying "slub_debug" as a
kernel parameter.
Also add support to switch off slab debugging for a kernel that was
built with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON. This works by specifying
slub_debug=-
as a kernel parameter.
Dave Jones wanted this feature.
