The kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() error exit path double unlocks cpu_slab->lock instead of making the required slub_put_cpu_ptr() call. Fix that. Boring details: 1. 12c69bab1ece ("mm, slub: move disabling/enabling irqs to ___slab_alloc())") adds local_irq_enable() above goto error, leaving the one at error: intact. 2. 2180da7ea70a0 ("mm, slub: use migrate_disable() on PREEMPT_RT") adds slub_get/put_cpu_ptr() calls, missing the already broken error path, creating unpaired slub_put_cpu_ptr()/slub_put_cpu_ptr() calls. 3. 340e7c4136c3 ("mm, slub: convert kmem_cpu_slab protection to local_lock") converts local_irq_enable() to local_unlock_irq(), culminating in a double unlock and unpaired slub_put_cpu_ptr()/slub_put_cpu_ptr().
