slub: Potential stack overflow

I discovered that we can overflow stack if CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG=y and use slabs
with many objects, since list_slab_objects() and process_slab() use
DECLARE_BITMAP(map, page->objects).

With 65535 bits, we use 8192 bytes of stack ...

Switch these allocations to dynamic allocations.
