Re: [PATCH] slub: reduce total stack usage of slab_err & object_err

Yes, using vprintk is better but you still have this path :

object_err -> slab_bug(208) -> printk(216)
instead of
object_err -> slab_bug_message(8) -> printk(216)

unfortunately the overhead for having var_args is pretty big, at least
on x86_64. I haven't measured it on 32 bit yet.

Really 208 bytes for a va arg parameter declaration? I expected it to be
simply a null terminated pointer list.
