0. This is an incompatible change that is going to break userland.
1. Learn to use diff -u.
2. Headers are customarily separated by spaces, not dashes.

Hi , 

 If will be really nice to list out what these values are when one does 

 $more /proc/slabinfo. It is just a one line code that busy people
really don't have time to look into :) Any how here is the one line code
with some lines above. 


      len += sprintf(page+len, "slabinfo - version: 1.1"
#if STATS
                                " (statistics)"
#endif
#ifdef CONFIG_SMP
                                " (SMP)"
#endif
                                "\n");
        len += sprintf(page+len,
"(cache-name)-----(num-active-objs)--(total-objs)--(obj-size)--(num-active-slabs)--(total-slabs)--(num-pages-per-slab)\n");
