Subject: [PATCH v2 2/4] mm: clean up validate_slab()

The function doesn't need to return any value, and the check can be
done in one pass.

There is a behavior change: before the patch, we stop at the first
invalid free object; after the patch, we stop at the first invalid
object, free or in use. This shouldn't matter because the original
behavior isn't intended anyway.
