Nit:

 int __kmem_cache_shutdown(struct kmem_cache *cachep)
 {
-	int rc = __kmem_cache_shrink(cachep, false);
-
-	if (rc)
-		return rc;
-

 }

You seem to forget to replace __kmem_cache_shutdown with
__kmem_cache_release in __kmem_cache_create error path:

That's rather nit-picking, but this kinda disrupts
init_kmem_cache_nodes/free_kmem_cache_nodes symmetry.
I'd leave free_kmem_cache_nodes alone and make
__kmem_cache_release call it along with free_percpu.
This would also reduce the patch footprint, because
the two hunks below wouldn't be needed.

Well, that's not true as we've found out - sysfs might still access the
cache in parallel. And alloc_calls_show -> list_locations does walk over
the kmem_cache_node->partial list, which we prune on shutdown.

I guess we should reintroduce locking for free_partial() in the scope of
this patch, partially reverting 69cb8e6b7c298.

No point calling __kmem_cache_shutdown on __kmem_cache_create error path
- the cache hasn't been used yet.
