Subject: slub: make sure struct kmem_cache_node is initialized before publication
According to KMSAN (see the report below) it's possible that
unfreeze_partials() accesses &n->list_lock before it's being initialized.
The initialization normally happens in init_kmem_cache_node() when it's
called from init_kmem_cache_nodes(), but only after the struct
kmem_cache_node is published. To avoid what appears to be a data race, we
need to publish the struct after it has been initialized.
KMSAN (https://github.com/google/kmsan) report is as follows:
