slab, slub, slob: convert slab_flags_t to 32-bit

struct kmem_cache::flags is "unsigned long" which is unnecessary on
64-bit as no flags are defined in the higher bits.

Switch the field to 32-bit and save some space on x86_64 until such
flags appear:

	add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/107 up/down: 0/-657 (-657)
	function                                     old     new   delta
	sysfs_slab_add                               720     719      -1
				...
	check_object                                 699     676     -23
