mm, slub: protect put_cpu_partial() with disabled irqs instead of cmpxchg

Jann Horn reported [1] the following theoretically possible race:

  task A: put_cpu_partial() calls preempt_disable()
  task A: oldpage = this_cpu_read(s->cpu_slab->partial)
  interrupt: kfree() reaches unfreeze_partials() and discards the page
  task B (on another CPU): reallocates page as page cache
  task A: reads page->pages and page->pobjects, which are actually
  halves of the pointer page->lru.prev
  task B (on another CPU): frees page
  interrupt: allocates page as SLUB page and places it on the percpu partial list
  task A: this_cpu_cmpxchg() succeeds

  which would cause page->pages and page->pobjects to end up containing
  halves of pointers that would then influence when put_cpu_partial()
  happens and show up in root-only sysfs files. Maybe that's acceptable,
  I don't know. But there should probably at least be a comment for now
  to point out that we're reading union fields of a page that might be
  in a completely different state.

Additionally, the this_cpu_cmpxchg() approach in put_cpu_partial() is only safe
against s->cpu_slab->partial manipulation in ___slab_alloc() if the latter
disables irqs, otherwise a __slab_free() in an irq handler could call
put_cpu_partial() in the middle of ___slab_alloc() manipulating ->partial
and corrupt it. This becomes an issue on RT after a local_lock is introduced
in later patch. The fix means taking the local_lock also in put_cpu_partial()
on RT.

After debugging this issue, Mike Galbraith suggested [2] that to avoid
different locking schemes on RT and !RT, we can just protect put_cpu_partial()
with disabled irqs (to be converted to local_lock_irqsave() later) everywhere.
This should be acceptable as it's not a fast path, and moving the actual
partial unfreezing outside of the irq disabled section makes it short, and with
the retry loop gone the code can be also simplified. In addition, the race
reported by Jann should no longer be possible.
