The reason for hiding this under SLUB_DEBUG was to have some way to
guarantee that no instrumentations is added if one does not want it.

SLUB_DEBUG is on by default and builds in a general

production kernels.

If someone disabled SLUB_DEBUG then that has been done with the intend to
get a minimal configuration.
