slab: fix clearing freelist in free_deferred_objects()

defer_free() links pending objects using the slab's freelist offset
which is fine as they are not free yet. free_deferred_objects() then
clears this pointer to avoid confusing the debugging consistency checks
that may be enabled for the cache.

However, with CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED, even the NULL pointer needs
to be encoded appropriately using set_freepointer(), otherwise it's
decoded as something else and triggers the consistency checks, as found
by the kernel test robot.

Use set_freepointer() to prevent the issue.
