mm/slab: introduce SLAB_NO_OBJ_EXT to avoid obj_ext creation



Slab extension objects can't be allocated before slab infrastructure is
initialized.  Some caches, like kmem_cache and kmem_cache_node, are
created before slab infrastructure is initialized.  Objects from these
caches can't have extension objects.  Introduce SLAB_NO_OBJ_EXT slab flag
to mark these caches and avoid creating extensions for objects allocated
from these slabs.
