cgroup/cpuset: Mark memory_spread_slab as obsolete

We've removed the SLAB allocator, cpuset_do_slab_mem_spread() and
SLAB_MEM_SPREAD, memory_spread_slab is a no-op now. We can mark
memory_spread_slab as obsolete in case someone still wants to use it after
cpuset_do_slab_mem_spread() removed. For more details, please check [1].
