mm/slub.c: branch optimization in free slowpath

The two conditions are mutually exclusive and gcc compiler will optimise
this into if-else-like pattern.  Given that the majority of free_slowpath
is free_frozen, let's provide some hint to the compilers.

Tests (perf bench sched messaging -g 20 -l 400000, executed 10x
after reboot) are done and the summarized result:

	un-patched	patched
max.	192.316		189.851
min.	187.267		186.252
avg.	189.154		188.086
stdev.	1.37		0.99
