mm/slab_common: use SLAB_NO_MERGE instead of negative refcount
When CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is enabled, we disable cache merging for KMALLOC_NORMAL caches so they don't end up merged with a cache that uses ad-hoc __GFP_ACCOUNT when allocating. This was implemented by setting the refcount to -1, but now we have a proper SLAB_NO_MERGE flag, so use that instead.
