mm/slab: use kmalloc_node() for off slab freelist_idx_t array allocation

After commit d6a71648dbc0 ("mm/slab: kmalloc: pass requests larger than
order-1 page to page allocator"), SLAB passes large ( > PAGE_SIZE * 2)
requests to buddy like SLUB does.

SLAB has been using kmalloc caches to allocate freelist_idx_t array for
off slab caches. But after the commit, freelist_size can be bigger than
KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE.

Instead of using pointer to kmalloc cache, use kmalloc_node() and only
check if the kmalloc cache is off slab during calculate_slab_order().
If freelist_size > KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE, no looping condition happens
as it allocates freelist_idx_t array directly from buddy.
