    ms/slub: do not assert not having lock in removing freed partial
    
    Vladimir reported the following issue:
    
    Commit c65c1877bd68 ("slub: use lockdep_assert_held") requires
    remove_partial() to be called with n->list_lock held, but free_partial()
    called from kmem_cache_close() on cache destruction does not follow this
    rule, leading to a warning:

    His solution was to add a spinlock in order to quiet lockdep.  Although
    there would be no contention to adding the lock, that lock also requires
    disabling of interrupts which will have a larger impact on the system.
    
    Instead of adding a spinlock to a location where it is not needed for
    lockdep, make a __remove_partial() function that does not test if the
    list_lock is held, as no one should have it due to it being freed.
    
    Also added a __add_partial() function that does not do the lock
    validation either, as it is not needed for the creation of the cache.
