Scanning code is required for every BCMA board, so we already include
linux/slab.h on every configuration. No matter if this is PCI host
board, or SoC, or whatever we will support in the future.
Now we discovered this is also needed in main.c, which will be always compiled.

That's why I think it's safe to include linux/slab.h in bcma_private.h.
But if that's just my opinion, everybody think it's wrong idea, I'm OK with it.
