Subject[PATCH v4 16/25] don't do __ClearPageSlab before freeing slab page.
Date
This will give the oportunity to the page allocator to
determine that a given page was previously a slab page, and
take action accordingly.

If memcg kmem is present, this means that that page needs to
be unaccounted. The page allocator will now have the responsibility
to clear that bit upon free_pages().

It is not uncommon to have the page allocator to check page flags.
Mlock flag, for instance, is checked pervasively all over the place.
So I hope this is okay for the slab as well.
