Looks like the sanest option IMHO, -rc7 is pretty late for anything than a
few-liner patch.

Considering that the status quo was !CMPXCHG_LOCAL in v2.6.38 and that lockless
SLUB is an x86-only affair right now:
$ git grep CMPXCHG_LOCAL arch/
arch/um/Kconfig.x86:config CMPXCHG_LOCAL
arch/x86/Kconfig.cpu:config CMPXCHG_LOCAL
There should be no problem with other architectures, right?
Thanks,
Ingo
