Series SLUB: use local_lock for kmem_cache_cpu protection and reduce disabling irqs | expand

When we obtain a new slab page from node partial list or page allocator, we
assign it to kmem_cache_cpu, perform some checks, and if they fail, we undo
the assignment.

In order to allow doing the checks without irq disabled, restructure the code
so that checks go first, and kmem_cache_cpu assignment only afterwards.
