[PATCH] slab: remove store_stackinfo()

From: Qian Cai
Date: Tue Apr 16 2019 - 10:23:16 EST


store_stackinfo() does not seem used in actual SLAB debugging.
Potentially, it could be added to check_poison_obj() to provide more
information, but this seems like an overkill due to the declining
popularity of the SLAB, so just remove it instead.
