Subject: mm: slub: really fix slab walking for init_on_free
Commit 1b7e816fc80e ("mm: slub: Fix slab walking for init_on_free") fixed
one problem with the slab walking but missed a key detail: When walking
the list, the head and tail pointers need to be updated since we end up
reversing the list as a result. Without doing this, bulk free is broken.
One way this is exposed is a NULL pointer with slub_debug=F:

Given we're now almost identical to the existing debugging code which
correctly walks the list, combine with that.
