The point of this complexity was to leave caches that happen to have
objects when kmem_cache_destroy() is called on the list, so that they
could be reused later. This behavior was inherited from the global
caches - if kmem_cache_destroy() is called on a cache that still has
object, we print a warning message and don't destroy the cache. This
patch changes this behavior.
