Ben Greear d6543e3935 slub: Enable backtrace for create/delete points
This patch attempts to grab a backtrace for the creation
and deletion points of the slub object.  When a fault is
detected, we can then get a better idea of where the item
was deleted.

Example output from debugging some funky nfs/rpc behaviour:
