slub: add ability to list alloc / free callers per slab

This patch enables listing the callers who allocated or freed objects in a
cache.

For example to list the allocators for kmalloc-128 do

cat /sys/slab/kmalloc-128/alloc_calls
      7 sn_io_slot_fixup+0x40/0x700
      7 sn_io_slot_fixup+0x80/0x700

SLAB_STORE_USER must be enabled for a slab cache by either booting with
"slab_debug" or enabling user tracking specifically for the slab of interest.
