Subject: [PATCH] kselftests: cgroup: fix kmem test slab1 check

test_kmem_basic creates 100,000 negative dentries, with each one mapping
to a slab object. After memory.high is set, these are reclaimed through
the shrink_slab function call which reclaims all 100,000 entries. The test
passes the majority of the time because when slab1 is calculated, it is
often above 0, however, 0 is also an acceptable value.
