The slub_debug=PU,kmalloc-xx cannot work because in the
create_kmalloc_caches() the s->name is created after the
create_kmalloc_cache() is called. The name is NULL in the
create_kmalloc_cache() so the kmem_cache_flags() would not set the
slub_debug flags to the s->flags. The fix here set up a kmalloc_names
string array for the initialization purpose and delete the dynamic
name creation of kmalloc_caches.

v2->v3
 - Adopted suggestion from Andrew Morton to delete the kmalloc-96/192 case
   and merge the code to single initialization loop.
 - Redefine the kmalloc_names.
 - Add the KMALLOC_LOOP_LOW as the for loop start index to initialize the
   kmalloc_caches object.

v1->v2
 - Adopted suggestion from Christoph to delete the dynamic name creation
   for kmalloc_caches.
