[PATCH] slab: clean up leak tracking ifdefs a little bit

- rename ____kmalloc to kmalloc_track_caller so that people have a chance
  to guess what it does just from it's name.  Add a comment describing it
  for those who don't.  Also move it after kmalloc in slab.h so people get
  less confused when they are just looking for kmalloc - move things around
  in slab.c a little to reduce the ifdef mess.
