Hi! Thanks for the patch!

Please, describe the problem you are trying to solve. The
text above just narrates the code.

If this is related to the perf degradation, then there is
another hint for you: region_reset() looks like this:

	static inline void
	region_reset(struct region *region)
	{
		struct rslab *slab;
		rlist_foreach_entry(slab, &region->slabs.slabs, slab.next_in_list) {
			region->slabs.stats.used -= slab->used;
			slab->used = 0;
		}
	}

But in fact you can stop when you see first 'used == 0', because
all the next slabs anyway have used 0 too (from what I see in the code).
So as not to add an 'if' here, we could in struct region keep a
pointer at the last slab having used != 0. And iterate till it.
