As Christoph mentioned, this patch is out of order with the previous one 
in the series; slab_node_prepare() is called in that previous patch by a 
memory hotplug callback without holding cache_chain_mutex (it's taken by 
the cpu hotplug callback prior to calling cpuup_prepare() currently).  So 
slab_node_prepare() should note that we require the mutex and the memory 
hotplug callback should take it in the previous patch.
