mm/slab_common: support the slub_debug boot option on specific object size

The slub_debug=PU,kmalloc-xx cannot work because in the
create_kmalloc_caches() the s->name is created after the
create_kmalloc_cache() is called.  The name is NULL in the
create_kmalloc_cache() so the kmem_cache_flags() would not set the
slub_debug flags to the s->flags.  The fix here set up a kmalloc_names
string array for the initialization purpose and delete the dynamic name
creation of kmalloc_caches.
