I don't think we need a new function for this.  Where you want to dump 
unreclaimable slab before panic, just call a new dump_unreclaimable_slab() 
function that gets declared in slab.h that is a no-op when CONFIG_SLABINFO 
is disabled.  We just want to do

	dump_header(...);
	dump_unreclaimable_slab(...);
	panic(...);

We don't need a new field, we already have cachep->flags accessible.

I don't think we need this.

We need to do the memset() here.

I think you can just check for SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT here.

Everything in this function should be pr_info().
