SLUB now requires a portion of the per cpu reserve. There are on average
about 70 real slabs on a system (aliases do not count) and each needs 12 bytes
of per cpu space. Thats 840 bytes. In debug mode all slabs will be real slabs
which will make us end up with 150 -> 1800. Give it some slack and add 2000
bytes to the default size.

Things work fine without this patch but then slub will reduce the percpu reserve
for modules.

Also define a reserve if CONFIG_MODULES is off.
