The slab emulation layer.
This provides a layer that implements the existing slab API.
We try to keep the definitions that we copy from slab.h
to an absolute minimum. If things break then more
(useless) definitions from slab.h may be needed.
We put a hook into slab.h to redirect includes for slab.h to
slabulator.h.
The slabulator also contains the remnants of the slab reaper since it is
used by the page allocator in the CONFIG_NUMA case. The slabifier does not
need this anymore since it is not object cache based.
