mm/slab_common: move kmem_cache definition to internal header
We don't need to keep kmem_cache definition in include/linux/slab.h if we don't need to inline kmem_cache_size(). According to my code inspection, this function is only called at lc_create() in lib/lru_cache.c which may be called at initialization phase of something, so we don't need to inline it. Therfore, move it to slab_common.c and move kmem_cache definition to internal header. After this change, we can change kmem_cache definition easily without full kernel build. For instance, we can turn on/off CONFIG_SLUB_STATS without full kernel build.
