Hi Matthew,
This completely untested patch adds kmem_cache_create_mempool which
creates a mempool-backed object cache. It wont work as-is (we're not
checking page order, for example) but you should get the idea.
The good part is that now you can create object caches for many critical
allocations which can share the same subsystem-specific mempool.
