From: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: slub: cleanup code for kmem cgroup support to kmem_cache_free_bulk

This change is primarily an attempt to make it easier to realize the
optimizations the compiler performs in-case CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is not
enabled.

Performance wise, even when CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is compiled in, the overhead
is zero.  This is because, as long as no process have enabled kmem cgroups
accounting, the assignment is replaced by asm-NOP operations.  This is
possible because memcg_kmem_enabled() uses a static_key_false() construct.

It also helps readability as it avoid accessing the p[] array like: p[size
- 1] which "expose" that the array is processed backwards inside helper
function build_detached_freelist().

Lastly this also makes the code more robust, in error case like passing
NULL pointers in the array.  Which were previously handled before commit
033745189b1b ("slub: add missing kmem cgroup support to
kmem_cache_free_bulk").
