Maybe that's acceptable, I don't know. But there should probably at least be a comment for now to point out that we're reading union fields of a page that might be in a completely different state. Additionally, the this_cpu_cmpxchg() approach in put_cpu_partial() is only safe against s->cpu_slab->partial manipulation in ___slab_alloc() if the latter disables irqs, otherwise a __slab_free() in an irq handler could call put_cpu_partial() in the middle of ___slab_alloc() manipulating ->partial and corrupt it. This becomes an issue on RT after a local_lock is introduced in later patch. The fix means taking the local_lock also in put_cpu_partial() on RT. After debugging this issue, Mike Galbraith suggested [2] that to avoid different locking schemes on RT and !RT, we can just protect put_cpu_partial() with disabled irqs (to be converted to local_lock_irqsave() later) everywhere. This should be acceptable as it's not a fast path, and moving the actual partial unfreezing outside of the irq disabled section makes it short, and with the retry loop gone the code can be also simplified. In addition, the race reported by Jann should no longer be possible.
