[PATCH 4.4 92/93] mm: slub: add missing TID bump in kmem_cache_alloc_bulk()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Jann Horn <jannh@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit fd4d9c7d0c71866ec0c2825189ebd2ce35bd95b8 upstream.

When kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() attempts to allocate N objects from a percpu
freelist of length M, and N > M > 0, it will first remove the M elements
from the percpu freelist, then call ___slab_alloc() to allocate the next
element and repopulate the percpu freelist. ___slab_alloc() can re-enable
IRQs via allocate_slab(), so the TID must be bumped before ___slab_alloc()
to properly commit the freelist head change.

Fix it by unconditionally bumping c->tid when entering the slowpath.
