The slab tree adds a percpu variable usage case (commit
973433975e20570fb24340accc26631d900c1193 "SLUB: Use this_cpu operations in
slub"), but the percpu tree removes the prefixing of percpu variables (commit
6cdf323be9d4962dcf8112aa539ad2e62a22ddc8 "percpu: remove per_cpu__ prefix"),
thus causing the following compilation error:
CC mm/slub.o
mm/slub.c: In function ‘alloc_kmem_cache_cpus’:
mm/slub.c:2078: error: implicit declaration of function ‘per_cpu_var’
mm/slub.c:2078: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast
make[1]: *** [mm/slub.o] Error 1
