mm/slab: fix unexpected index mapping result of kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE+1) 

Commit description is copied from the original post of this bug:

  http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.mm/135349

Kernels after v3.9 use kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1) to get the next
larger cache size than the size index INDEX_NODE mapping.  In kernels
3.9 and earlier we used malloc_sizes[INDEX_L3 + 1].cs_size.

However, sometimes we can't get the right output we expected via
kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1), causing a BUG().

The mapping table in the latest kernel is like:
    index = {0,   1,  2 ,  3,  4,   5,   6,   n}
     size = {0,   96, 192, 8, 16,  32,  64,   2^n}
The mapping table before 3.10 is like this:
    index = {0 , 1 , 2,   3,  4 ,  5 ,  6,   n}
    size  = {32, 64, 96, 128, 192, 256, 512, 2^(n+3)}

The problem on my mips64 machine is as follows:

(1) When configured DEBUG_SLAB && DEBUG_PAGEALLOC && DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC
    && DEBUG_SPINLOCK, the sizeof(struct kmem_cache_node) will be "150",
    and the macro INDEX_NODE turns out to be "2": #define INDEX_NODE
    kmalloc_index(sizeof(struct kmem_cache_node))

(2) Then the result of kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1) is 8.

(3) Then "if(size >= kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1)" will lead to "size
    = PAGE_SIZE".

(4) Then "if ((size >= (PAGE_SIZE >> 3))" test will be satisfied and
    "flags |= CFLGS_OFF_SLAB" will be covered.

(5) if (flags & CFLGS_OFF_SLAB)" test will be satisfied and will go to
    "cachep->slabp_cache = kmalloc_slab(slab_size, 0u)", and the result
    here may be NULL while kernel bootup.

(6) Finally,"BUG_ON(ZERO_OR_NULL_PTR(cachep->slabp_cache));" causes the
    BUG info as the following shows (may be only mips64 has this problem):

This patch fixes the problem of kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1) and removes
the BUG by adding 'size >= 256' check to guarantee that all necessary
small sized slabs are initialized regardless sequence of slab size in
mapping table.
