Try to send IPI to flush per cpu objects back to free lists
to CPUs to seems to have such objects.
The check which CPU to IPI is racy but we don't care since
asking a CPU without per cpu objects to flush does no
damage and as far as I can tell the flush_all by itself is
racy against allocs on remote CPUs anyway, so if you meant
the flush_all to be determinstic, you had to arrange for
locking regardless.
