I'm not sure, but, this poisoning is also needed for
slab_array_alloc_from_page_allocator()?

slab_lock() doesn't protect freelist if CONFIG_HAVE_CMPXCHG_DOUBLE is
enabled. You should use cmpxchg_double_slab() things.

And, better solution is to use acquire_slab() rather than
re-implementation of detaching freelist.

Fetching all objects with holding node lock could result in enomourous
lock contention. How about getting free ojbect pointer without holding
the node lock? We can temporarilly store all head of freelists in
array p and can fetch each object pointer without holding node lock.

Thanks.
