Subject: mm/slab: noinline __ac_put_obj()
Our intention of __ac_put_obj() is that it doesn't affect anything if
sk_memalloc_socks() is disabled. But, because __ac_put_obj() is too
small, compiler inline it to ac_put_obj() and affect code size of free
path. This patch add noinline keyword for __ac_put_obj() not to distrupt
normal free path at all.
<Before>

<After>

0000000000000670 0000000000000216 T kmem_cache_free
cache_alloc_refill: 0x2f5->0x2e5
kfree: 0x256->0x228
kmem_cache_free: 0x24c->0x216
code size of each function is reduced slightly.
