mm: fix slab->page _count corruption when using slub

On arches that do not support this_cpu_cmpxchg_double() slab_lock is used
to do atomic cmpxchg() on double word which contains page->_count.  The
page count can be changed from get_page() or put_page() without taking
slab_lock.  That corrupts page counter.

Fix it by moving page->_count out of cmpxchg_double data.  So that slub
does no change it while updating slub meta-data in struct page.
