slub: Make CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGE_ALLOC work with new fastpath
commit 1393d9a1857471f816d0be1ccc1d6433a86050f6 upstream. Fastpath can do a speculative access to a page that CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGE_ALLOC may have marked as invalid to retrieve the pointer to the next free object. Use probe_kernel_read in that case in order not to cause a page fault.
