yes , it is fix up in cpuup_canceled it's
currently manipulating the alien cache for the canceled cpu's node which may be the same as the node being operated on in the __cache_free_alien func.
void cpuup_canceled
{
n = get_node(cachep, node);
spin_lock_irq(&n->list_lock);
...
n->alien = NULL;
spin_unlock_irq(&n->list_lock);
....
}
