Subject: [PATCH] mm/slub: reduce the calculation times of 'MAX_OBJS_PER_PAGE'

From: Gou Hao <gouhao@...ontech.com>

when calling calc_slab_order(), 'slub_min_order'
and 'size' are fixed values, if the condition of
'MAX_OBJS_PER_PAGE' is true, it will be returned from
here every time.

So we can calculate the condition of 'MAX_OBJS_PER_PAGE'
before calling calculate_order().
