Subject: [RFC PATCH v3 3/7] slub: Reflow ___slab_alloc()

From: Chengming Zhou <zhouchengming@...edance.com>

The get_partial() interface used in ___slab_alloc() may return a single
object in the "kmem_cache_debug(s)" case, in which we will just return
the "freelist" object.

Move this handling up to prepare for later changes.

And the "pfmemalloc_match()" part is not needed for node partial slab,
since we already check this in the get_partial_node().
