I think that to avoid having non-working patch (which can cause problems when bisecting), it would be a better idea to switch the order of patches 2 and 3. This way we won't have incorrect behaviour.

All right.

All right; this also introduces local variable to avoid accessing the slab twice^W four times...

... which is then used here.
