mm/slub: mark racy access on slab->freelist

In deactivate_slab(), slab->freelist can be changed concurrently. Mark
data race on slab->freelist as benign using READ_ONCE.

This patch is aimed at reducing the number of benign races reported by
KCSAN in order to focus future debugging effort on harmful races.
