Include SLAB and SLOB caches when performing kmem_cache pointer
verification. A defense against such corruption[1] should be applied
to all the allocators. With this added, the "SLAB_FREE_CROSS" and
"SLAB_FREE_PAGE" LKDTM tests now pass on SLAB:

  virt_to_cache: Object is not a Slab page!
  WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 2202 at mm/slab.h:489 kmem_cache_free+0x196/0x1d0

Additionally clean up neighboring Kconfig entries for clarity,
readability, and redundant option removal.

... SLOB?  Really?  Objects from different kmem caches are mixed together
on the same page with SLOB (at least last time I looked).  So how does
this work?

Hmm. I'm not sure. I can't even boot a SLOB kernel these days (even
without these patches). But, pages are shared between kmem caches on
SLOB, then I certainly can't add this check for it. :) I'll adjust this
patch.
