This patch changes the organization of the slab blocks within the slab allocator. Originally, blocks were kept in a list sorted by the number of free entries. However, it turned out that the maintenance of this invariant involves a lot of overhead in the presence of a large number of blocks. The new implementation manages blocks within a ring in no particular order and maintains a pointer to the block where the next allocation is attempted. This alleviates the need for sorting blocks when allocating and deallocating. Fixes #1908
