SLUB: Do not allocate object bit array on stack
The objects per slab increase with the current patches in mm since we allow up to order 3 allocs by default. More patches in mm actually allow to use 2M or higher sized slabs. For slab validation we need per object bitmaps in order to check a slab. We end up with up to 64k objects per slab resulting in a potential requirement of 8K stack space. That does not look good. Allocate the bit arrays via kmalloc.
