Please ignore the above comment. And after re-check the code, I am
sure that all callers of deactivate_slab(), pass c->page, which means
that page should not be on any list. But your test result "list_add
double add: new=000003d1029ecc08,
prev=000000008ff846d0,next=000003d1029ecc08"  indicates that
page(new) is already on a list. I think that maybe something else is
wrong which is covered.
I can not reproduce this bug on x86. Could you share your config and
cmdline? Any do you turn on any debug option of slub?

Thanks,
Pingfan
