[PATCH -mm] slub: fix cpu hotplug offline/online path

[Akinobu Mita]

This patch fixes the problem introduced by:
http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.23-rc8/2.6.23-rc8-mm2/broken-out/slub-place-kmem_cache_cpu-structures-in-a-numa-aware-way.patch

I got slub BUG report when I tried to do cpu hotplug/unplug
$ while true; do
	echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
	echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
done

This is because init_alloc_cpu_cpu() is called every time when the CPU is
going to be onlined but init_alloc_cpu_cpu() is not intented to be called
twice or more for same CPU. Then it breaks kmem_cache_cpu_free list for
the CPU.

This patch removes init_alloc_cpu_cpu() from cpu hotplug notifier. But
call it for each possible CPUs not only online CPUs at initialization time.
