Currently slob is disabled if we're using sparsemem, due to an earlier
patch from Goto-san.  Slob and static sparsemem work without any trouble as
it is, and the only hiccup is a missing slab_is_available() in the case of
sparsemem extreme.  With this, we're rid of the last set of restrictions
for slob usage.
