kmem_buckets_create() clones kmalloc_caches[KMALLOC_NORMAL].
kmalloc_slab() figures out the kmalloc type the caller asks for, but
then ignored it whenever a bucket set was in use, returning a normal
cache regardless. This would be a problem if a caller asked for GFP_DMA,
__GFP_ACCOUNT, etc. None of the current users do this, so there is no
problem, but it makes adding new users fragile. For example, skb data[1]
needs to handle GFP_DMA (rarely) and __GFP_ACCOUNT (often).

Send those allocations to the general caches instead so nothing breaks and
regular allocations remain isolated with the bucket. The kmem_bucket_type
enum contains only a single item here, but will be expanded in the next
patch.

The test checks mem_cgroup_kmem_disabled() before expecting an accounted
cache, so export it for KUnit only, which a modular build of the test
needs to link.

Built and tests pass with ARCH=x86_64 defconfig with GCC 16.2.0, with
CONFIG_SLAB_BUCKETS as y and n.
