Following the example at mm/slub.c, add out-of-memory diagnostics to the
SLAB allocator to help on debugging certain OOM conditions.
An example print out looks like this:
<snip page allocator out-of-memory message>
SLAB: Unable to allocate memory on node 0 (gfp=0x11200)
cache: bio-0, object size: 192, order: 0
node 0: slabs: 3/3, objs: 60/60, free: 0

v2:
* drop the sysctl knob to override __GFP_NOWARN allocation flag (Pekka, David)
v3:
* adjust the print output to match slub's warning printout (WANG Cong)
