[ Upstream commit 50eab0503a7579ada512e4968738b7c9737cf36e ]
flush_tasklet is not percpu var, and percpu is percpu var, and
this_cpu_ptr(&info->cache->percpu->flush_tasklet)
is not equal to
&this_cpu_ptr(info->cache->percpu)->flush_tasklet
1f743b076(use this_cpu_ptr per-cpu helper) introduced this bug.
