[PATCH] cpuset: memory_spread_slab drop useless PF_SPREAD_PAGE check
The hook in the slab cache allocation path to handle cpuset memory
spreading for tasks in cpusets with 'memory_spread_slab' enabled has a
modest performance bug. The hook calls into the memory spreading handler
alternate_node_alloc() if either of 'memory_spread_slab' or
'memory_spread_page' is enabled, even though the handler does nothing
(albeit harmlessly) for the page case
Fix - drop PF_SPREAD_PAGE from the set of flag bits that are used to
trigger a call to alternate_node_alloc().
The page case is handled by separate hooks -- see the calls conditioned on
cpuset_do_page_mem_spread() in mm/filemap.c
