That's how my code reads:

#ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_VM
if (!name || in_interrupt() || size < sizeof(void *) ||
     size    KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE) {

     if ((flags & SLAB_PANIC))
         panic("kmem_cache_create(%s) integrity check failed\n", name);
     printk(KERN_ERR "kmem_cache_create(%s) integrity check failed\n",
            name);
     return NULL;
}
#endif

How can it put any patch later than this in trouble ?
