Peter,

There was a little conflict with my merge of 3.4.14 due to the backport
of this patch:

commit 947ca1856a7e60aa6d20536785e6a42dff25aa6e
Author: Michael Wang <wang...@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Date:   Wed Sep 5 10:33:18 2012 +0800

    slab: fix the DEADLOCK issue on l3 alien lock

Could you just confirm that my fix is correct.

Thanks,

-- Steve

Subject: [PATCH] slab: Fix up stable merge of slab init_lock_keys()

There was a stable fix that moved the init_lock_keys() to after
the enable_cpucache(). But -rt changed this function to
init_cachep_lock_keys(). This moves the init afterwards to
match the stable fix.
