For SLAB the kmalloc caches needed to be created in ascending sizes in order. However, the constraint is not necessary anymore because SLAB has been removed and SLUB doesn't need to comply with the constraint. Thus, kmalloc 96 and 192 caches can be created after the other size kmalloc caches are created instead of checking every time to find their order to be created. Also, this change could prevent engineers from being confused by the removed constraint.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
