Christoph Lameter c59def9f22 Slab allocators: Drop support for destructors 
There is no user of destructors left.  There is no reason why we should keep
checking for destructors calls in the slab allocators.

The RFC for this patch was discussed at
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=117882364330705&w=2

Destructors were mainly used for list management which required them to take a
spinlock.  Taking a spinlock in a destructor is a bit risky since the slab
allocators may run the destructors anytime they decide a slab is no longer
needed.

Patch drops destructor support.  Any attempt to use a destructor will BUG().
