In the future, we will separate slab, folio and page from each other and calling virt_to_folio() on an address allocated from slab will return NULL. Delay the conversion from struct page to struct slab until we know we're not dealing with a large kmalloc allocation. There's a minor win for large kmalloc allocations as we avoid the compound_head() hidden in virt_to_folio(). This deprecates calling ksize() on memory allocated by alloc_pages(). Today it becomes a warning and support will be removed entirely in the future. Introduce large_kmalloc_size() to abstract how we represent the size of a large kmalloc allocation. For now, this is the same as page_size(), but it will change with separately allocated memdescs.
