Hmm. I don't know slqb well.
So, It's just my guess. 

We surely increase l->nr_partial in  __slab_alloc_page.
In between l->nr_partial++ and call __cache_list_get_page, Who is decrease l->nr_partial again.
After all, __cache_list_get_page return NULL and hit the VM_BUG_ON.

Comment said :

        /* Protects nr_partial, nr_slabs, and partial */
  spinlock_t    page_lock;

As comment is right, We have to hold the l->page_lock ?
