Laura Abbott dc5c5ad79f lib/test_meminit.c: add bulk alloc/free tests
kmem_cache_alloc_bulk/kmem_cache_free_bulk are used to make multiple
allocations of the same size to avoid the overhead of multiple
kmalloc/kfree calls.  Extend the kmem_cache tests to make some calls to
these APIs.

README

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 Restructured Text 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.
