slub: avoid duplicate creation on the first object

When a kmem_cache is created with ctor, each object in the kmem_cache
will be initialized before ready to use.  While in slub implementation,
the first object will be initialized twice.

This patch reduces the duplication of initialization of the first
object.

Fix commit 7656c72b ("SLUB: add macros for scanning objects in a slab").
