mm/ksm: get mm_slot by mm_slot_entry() when slot is !NULL

Patch series "mm_slot: fix the usage of mm_slot_entry", v2.

When using mm_slot in ksm, there is code like:

     slot = mm_slot_lookup(mm_slots_hash, mm);
     mm_slot = mm_slot_entry(slot, struct ksm_mm_slot, slot);
     if (mm_slot && ..) {
     }

The mm_slot_entry() won't return a valid value if slot is NULL generally. 
But currently it works since slot is the first element of struct
ksm_mm_slot.

To reduce the ambiguity and make it robust, access mm_slot_entry() when
slot is !NULL.
