Subject: [PATCH 4/4] slob: Use slab_list instead of lru

Currently we use the page->lru list for maintaining lists of slabs.  We
have a list in the page structure (slab_list) that can be used for this
purpose.  Doing so makes the code cleaner since we are not overloading
the lru list.

Use the slab_list instead of the lru list for maintaining lists of
slabs.
