In case CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON=n find_mergeable() gets debug features
from commandline but never checks if there are features from the
SLAB_NEVER_MERGE set.
As a result selected by slub_debug caches are always mergeable if they
have been created without a custom constructor set or without one of the
SLAB_* debug features on.

This adds the necessary check and makes selected slab caches unmergeable
if one of the SLAB_NEVER_MERGE features is set from commandline.
