[patch 2/8] dm-bufio: get rid of slab cache name allocations

[mpatocka@redhat.com]

[-- Attachment #1: dm-bufio-remove-name-allocations.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2917 bytes --]

dm-bufio keeps the array dm_bufio_cache_names that holds names of the slab
caches.

Since the commit db265eca7700 ("mm/sl[aou]b: Move duping of slab name to
slab_common.c"), the kernel automatically duplicates the slab cache name
when creating the slab cache, so we no longer have to keep the name
allocated.

This patch removes the code that allocates the slab names and keeps them
around.
