A search of EXT4_FS in make menuconfig inspired me to add
CONFIG_BLOCK=y
to ext4.cfg.

Seeing that the Kconfig entry for SLUB_DEBUG reads
config SLUB_DEBUG
default y
bool "Enable SLUB debugging support" if EXPERT
depends on SLUB && SYSFS
help

I guessed that this no-slub-debug.cfg might work:
CONFIG_EXPERT=y
# CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG is not set
Please don't ask me to explain why.
