My patch is already in Pekka's slab-2.6.git tree at 
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/penberg/slab-2.6.git;a=commit;h=fa5ec8a1f66f3c2a3af723abcf8085509c9ee682

You had proposed http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=124725166205814, which 
moves the mask to kmem_cache_open() and calls calculate_sizes() twice.  
That eliminates DEBUG_FLAGS_SIZE, but I don't see that define as being 
troublesome since we must define DEBUG_FLAGS to specify what options add 
metdata anyway.
