Matt Mackall d6269543ef slob: reduce list scanning 
The version of SLOB in -mm always scans its free list from the beginning,
which results in small allocations and free segments clustering at the
beginning of the list over time.  This causes the average search to scan
over a large stretch at the beginning on each allocation.

By starting each page search where the last one left off, we evenly
distribute the allocations and greatly shorten the average search.

Without this patch, kernel compiles on a 1.5G machine take a large amount
of system time for list scanning.  With this patch, compiles are within a
few seconds of performance of a SLAB kernel with no notable change in
system time.
