slab, lockdep: Annotate slab -> rcu -> debug_object -> slab

Lockdep thinks there's lock recursion through:

	kmem_cache_free()
	  cache_flusharray()
	    spin_lock(&l3->list_lock)  <----------------.
	    free_block()                                |
	      slab_destroy()                            |
		call_rcu()                              |
		  debug_object_activate()               |
		    debug_object_init()                 |
		      __debug_object_init()             |
			kmem_cache_alloc()              |
			  cache_alloc_refill()          |
			    spin_lock(&l3->list_lock) --'

Now debug objects doesn't use SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU and hence there is no
actual possibility of recursing. Luckily debug objects marks it slab
with SLAB_DEBUG_OBJECTS so we can identify the thing.

Mark all SLAB_DEBUG_OBJECTS (all one!) slab caches with a special
lockdep key so that lockdep sees its a different cachep.

Also add a WARN on trying to create a SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU |
SLAB_DEBUG_OBJECTS cache, to avoid possible future trouble.
