[PATCH] kmem_find_general_cachep to static inline

[Matthew M <matthew.macleod@btinternet.com>]

Hi all,

Inlined patch against 2.5.1-pre5 moves kmem_find_general_cachep and the 
cache_sizes struct to slab.h and declares it static inline, prompted by a 
comment in the source. Compiles and runs fine here.

First patch, please explain what I did wrong :)
