[PATCH] slab: add transfer_objects() function

slabr_objects() can be used to transfer objects between various object
caches of the slab allocator.  It is currently only used during
__cache_alloc() to retrieve elements from the shared array.  We will be
using it soon to transfer elements from the alien caches to the remote
shared array.
