I tested your patch,but the bug is still.
I think the code may be is:
diff --git a/mm/slub.c b/mm/slub.c
index ffe13fd..d66afc4 100644
--- a/mm/slub.c
+++ b/mm/slub.c
@@ -2040,7 +2040,7 @@ static bool has_cpu_slab(int cpu, void *info)

- return !!(c->page);
+ return !!(c->page || c->partial);
}
static void flush_all(struct kmem_cache *s)
Because the function:
__flush_cpu_slab(struct kmem_cache *s, int cpu)
{
struct kmem_cache_cpu *c = per_cpu_ptr(s->cpu_slab, cpu);
if (likely(c)) {
if (c->page)
flush_slab(s, c);
unfreeze_partials(s);
}
}
It flush_slab and unfreeze_partial,so if c->page or c->parital is ok, should do __flush_cpu_slab.

Many thanks for your report.
If I understand correctly, you are seeing the above error messages in
3.4-rcX but not in 3.3, right?

I also understand that the above patch makes the errors disappear, correct?
If so, then very good catch, but I believe the patch can be refined.
This is because
!!c here will always be true and in effect, you are returning the
situation to that
of the state of Linux 3.3, where an IPI was sent to flush to all CPUs,
whether they
have something to flush or not.
Having said that, your patch shows that we are too aggressive in not
sending the IPI,
sometime failing to send it when we should. I think the following
patch fixes the issue.
I boot tested on 8 way x86 VM and forcing a flush using
/sys/kernel/slab/XXX/validate
and nothing exploded. Can you please test it and validate that it
indeed solves the issue?

Subject: slub: missing test for partial pages flush work in flush_all
Commit a8364d5555b2030d093cde0f0795 modified flush_all to only
send IPI to flush per-cpu cache pages to CPUs that seems to have done.
However, the test for flush work to be done on CPU was too relaxed, causing
an IPI not to be sent for CPUs with partial pages with the result of log showing
errors such as the following:
LUB raid5-md127: kmem_cache_destroy called for cache that still has objects.
Pid: 6143, comm: mdadm Tainted: G O 3.4.0-rc6+ #75

Fix this by testing for partial pages presence as well.
