The header format is highly similar between slab and slub. The main
difference lays in the fact that slab may optionally have statistics
added here in case of CONFIG_SLAB_DEBUG, while the slub will stick them
somewhere else.
By making sure that information conditionally lives inside a
globally-visible CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB switch, we can move the header
printing to a common location.

This patch moves all the common machinery to slabinfo processing
to slab_common.c. We can do better by noticing that the output is
heavily common, and having the allocators to just provide finished
information about this. But after this first step, this can be done
easier.

Do the initial settings of the fields in common code. This will allow us
to push more processing into common code later and improve readability.

Shift the allocations to common code. That way the allocation and
freeing of the kmem_cache structures is handled by common code.

Simplify locking by moving the slab_add_sysfs after all locks have been
dropped. Eases the upcoming move to provide sysfs support for all
allocators.

The slab aliasing logic causes some strange contortions in slub. So add
a call to deal with aliases to slab_common.c but disable it for other
slab allocators by providng stubs that fail to create aliases.
Full general support for aliases will require additional cleanup passes
and more standardization of fields in kmem_cache.

What is done there can be done in __kmem_cache_shutdown.
This affects RCU handling somewhat. On rcu free all slab allocators do
not refer to other management structures than the kmem_cache structure.
Therefore these other structures can be freed before the rcu deferred
free to the page allocator occurs.

Make all allocators use the "kmem_cache" slabname for the "kmem_cache"
structure.

kmem_cache_destroy does basically the same in all allocators.
Extract common code which is easy since we already have common mutex
handling.

Use the mutex definition from SLAB and make it the common way to take a sleeping lock.
This has the effect of using a mutex instead of a rw semaphore for SLUB.
SLOB gains the use of a mutex for kmem_cache_create serialization.
Not needed now but SLOB may acquire some more features later (like slabinfo
/ sysfs support) through the expansion of the common code that will
need this.

All allocators have some sort of support for the bootstrap status.
Setup a common definition for the boot states and make all slab
allocators use that definition.
