mm, slab: unlink slabinfo, sysfs and debugfs immediately

Browse source 
kmem_cache_destroy() includes removing the associated sysfs and debugfs
directories, and the cache from the list of caches that appears in
/proc/slabinfo. Currently this might not happen immediately when:

- the cache is SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU and the cleanup is delayed,
  including the directores removal
- __kmem_cache_shutdown() fails due to outstanding objects - the
  directories remain indefinitely

When a cache is recreated with the same name, such as due to module
unload followed by a load, the directories will fail to be recreated for
the new instance of the cache due to the old directories being present.
The cache will also appear twice in /proc/slabinfo.

While we want to convert the SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU cleanup to be
synchronous again, the second point remains. So let's fix this first and
have the directories and slabinfo removed immediately in
kmem_cache_destroy() and regardless of __kmem_cache_shutdown() success.

This should not make debugging harder if __kmem_cache_shutdown() fails,
because a detailed report of outstanding objects is printed into dmesg
already due to the failure.

Also simplify kmem_cache_release() sysfs handling by using
__is_defined(SLAB_SUPPORTS_SYSFS).

Note the resulting code in kmem_cache_destroy() is a bit ugly but will
be further simplified - this is in order to make small bisectable steps.
