[RFC PATCH 1/5] slub: Introduce on_partial()

[chengming . zhou]

From: Chengming Zhou <zhouchengming@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

We change slab->__unused to slab->flags to use it as SLUB_FLAGS, which
now only include SF_NODE_PARTIAL flag. It indicates whether or not the
slab is on node partial list.

The following patches will change to don't freeze slab when moving it
from node partial list to cpu partial list. So we can't rely on frozen
bit to see if we should manipulate the slab->slab_list.

Instead we will rely on this SF_NODE_PARTIAL flag, which is protected
by node list_lock.
