[PATCH -next] slub: set PG_slab on all of slab pages

[Namhyung Kim <namhyung.kim@lge.com>]

Unlike SLAB, SLUB doesn't set PG_slab on tail pages, so if a user would
call free_pages() incorrectly on a object in a tail page, she will get
confused with the undefined result. Setting the flag would help her by
emitting a warning on bad_page() in such a case.
