While making slub available for RT I noticed, that during CPU offline for each kmem_cache __flush_cpu_slab() is called on a live CPU. This correctly flushs the cpu_slab of the dead CPU via flush_slab. Though unfreeze_partials which is called from __flush_cpu_slab() after that looks at the cpu_slab of the cpu on which this is called. So we fail to look at the partials of the dead cpu.
Correct this by extending the arguments of unfreeze_partials with the target cpu number and use per_cpu_ptr instead of this_cpu_ptr.
