slub: initial bulk free implementation

Browse Source 
This implements SLUB specific kmem_cache_free_bulk().  SLUB allocator now
both have bulk alloc and free implemented.

Choose to reenable local IRQs while calling slowpath __slab_free().  In
worst case, where all objects hit slowpath call, the performance should
still be faster than fallback function __kmem_cache_free_bulk(), because
local_irq_{disable+enable} is very fast (7-cycles), while the fallback
invokes this_cpu_cmpxchg() which is slightly slower (9-cycles).
Nitpicking, this should be faster for N>=4, due to the entry cost of
local_irq_{disable+enable}.

Do notice that the save+restore variant is very expensive, this is key to
why this optimization works.

CPU: i7-4790K CPU @ 4.00GHz
 * local_irq_{disable,enable}:  7 cycles(tsc) - 1.821 ns
 * local_irq_{save,restore}  : 37 cycles(tsc) - 9.443 ns

Baseline normal fastpath (alloc+free cost): 43 cycles(tsc) 10.834 ns
