Subject: kpagecount: add slab page checking because _mapcount is in a union
From: Petr Holasek <pholasek@xxxxxxxxxx>

Add a PageSlab() check before adding the _mapcount value to /kpagecount. 
page->_mapcount is in a union with the SLAB structure so for pages
controlled by SLAB, page_mapcount() returns nonsense.
