mm/slab: add cache_ and slab_needs_objcg() helpers
Slabs of some caches never need the objcg part of struct slabobj_ext. Introduce helpers to query this for a cache or a slab. Introduce SLAB_MAY_ACCOUNT flag that is currently only internal and all caches have it set except: - KMALLOC_NORMAL caches, as long as KMALLOC_RECLAIM caches are separate - KMALLOC_NO_OBJ_EXT caches, if they exist For named caches we currently can't derive SLAB_MAY_ACCOUNT from SLAB_ACCOUNT because some caches might be created without SLAB_ACCOUNT and then used both with and without __GFP_ACCOUNT concurrently, allocating obj_ext arrays on demand. So just add the SLAB_MAY_ACCOUNT to all kmem caches, unless kmem accounting is disabled. This can be improved later by finding out all caches used with __GFP_ACCOUNT, creating them with the SLAB_MAY_ACCOUNT flag explicitly, and then ignoring __GFP_ACCOUNT for all other caches (possibly with a warning). To make the evaluation of slab_needs_objcg() faster in the allocation and free fast paths, add a obj_exts_needs_objcg flag into slab itself. This optimization is only available on 64bit architectures where free bits are available for the flag.
