From: Rob Clark <robdcl...@chromium.org>
I noticed slab_free() showing up at the top of perf results in
gl_driver2, due to "streaming" GPU state objects, which are allocated
and destroyed within a single draw call.
In this case, it is guaranteed that we free on the same child pool,
from the same (only) thread accessing the child pool. So add a faster,
but more restricted version of slab_free() to cut the overhead.
