Yea looping to PAGE_SHIFT + MAX_ORDER is fundamentally wrong.


Subject: SLAB: Fix init_lock_keys()

init_lock_keys goes too far in initializing values in kmalloc_caches because
it assumed that the size of the kmalloc array goes up to MAX_ORDER. However, 
the size
of the kmalloc array for SLAB may be restricted due to increased page sizes or 
CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER.
