mm/slub: remove slab_lock() usage for debug operations
All alloc and free operations on debug caches are now serialized by
n->list_lock, so we can remove slab_lock() usage in validate_slab()
and list_slab_objects() as those also happen under n->list_lock.
Note the usage in list_slab_objects() could happen even on non-debug
caches, but only during cache shutdown time, so there should not be any
parallel freeing activity anymore. Except for buggy slab users, but in
that case the slab_lock() would not help against the common cmpxchg
based fast paths (in non-debug caches) anyway.
Also adjust documentation comments accordingly.
