base-hw: upgrade cap-space slab less eagerly

Browse Source 
This patch upgrades the cap-space slab only if the kernel runs out of
entries, instead of consuming as much PD-session quota as possible.
Until now, the behavior worked well because the cap-space slab was the
only consumer of PD-session quota. However, once we start accounting all
PD session meta data - and eventually merging the PD and RAM services -
the aggressive scheme stands in the way.

Issue #2398
