SLUB: Remove useless masking of GFP_ZERO

From: Christoph Lameter
Date: Thu Dec 13 2007 - 15:48:46 EST


Remove a recently added useless masking of GFP_ZERO. GFP_ZERO is
already masked out in new_slab() (See how it calls allocate_slab). No need
to do it twice. This reverts the SLUB parts of
7fd272550bd43cc1d7289ef0ab2fa50de137e767.
