Simplify setup and reduce code in kmem_cache_init(). This allows us to get rid of initarray_cache as well as the manual setup code for the kmem_cache and kmem_cache_node arrays during bootstrap. We introduce a new bootstrap state "PARTIAL" for slab that signals the creation of a kmem_cache boot cache. V1->V2: Get rid of initarray_cache as well.
