I realize my commit message should explain more why it's a no-op, my bad.

The SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag used to be implemented in SLAB, which was
removed so it became a dead flag as of v6.8-rc1. That series[1]
mark it obsolete to avoid confusion for users. So here we can just
remove all its users, which has no functional changes.
