Merge tag 'slab-for-7.0-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab
Pull slab fixes from Vlastimil Babka: - Fix for a memory leak that can occur when already so low on memory that we can't allocate a new slab anymore (Qing Wang) - Fix for a case where slabobj_ext array for a slab might be allocated from the same slab, making it permanently non-freeable (Harry Yoo) * tag 'slab-for-7.0-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab: slab: fix memory leak when refill_sheaf() fails mm/slab: fix an incorrect check in obj_exts_alloc_size()
