[PATCH v6 2/2] lib: stackdepot: Add support to disable stack depot

From: Vijayanand Jitta <vjitta@codeaurora.org>

Add a kernel parameter stack_depot_disable to disable
stack depot. So that stack hash table doesn't consume
any memory when stack depot is disabled.

The usecase is CONFIG_PAGE_OWNER without page_owner=on.
Without this patch, stackdepot will consume the memory
for the hashtable. By default, it's 8M which is never trivial.

With this option, in CONFIG_PAGE_OWNER configured system,
page_owner=off, stack_depot_disable in kernel command line,
we could save the wasted memory for the hashtable.
