Linus Torvalds 2c1cbec1e2 Use proper object allocators for unknown object nodes too
We used to use a different allocator scheme for when we didn't know the
object type.  That meant that objects that were created without any
up-front knowledge of the type would not go through the same allocation
paths as normal object allocations, and would miss out on the statistics.

But perhaps more importantly than the statistics (that are useful when
looking at memory usage but not much else), if we want to make the
object hash tables use a denser object pointer representation, we need
to make sure that they all go through the same blocking allocator.

/*
* alloc.c - specialized allocator for internal objects
*
* Copyright (C) 2006 Linus Torvalds
*
* The standard malloc/free wastes too much space for objects, partly because
* it maintains all the allocation infrastructure (which isn't needed, since
* we never free an object descriptor anyway), but even more because it ends
* up with maximal alignment because it doesn't know what the object alignment
* for the new allocation is.
