mm/slab: make criteria for off slab determination robust and simple To become an off slab, there are some constraints to avoid bootstrapping problem and recursive call. This can be avoided differently by simply checking that corresponding kmalloc cache is ready and it's not a off slab. It would be more robust because static size checking can be affected by cache size change or architecture type but dynamic checking isn't. One check 'freelist_cache->size > cachep->size / 2' is added to check benefit of choosing off slab, because, now, there is no size constraint which ensures enough advantage when selecting off slab.
