I wonder if we want to have per-node counters instead?
That would complicate the initialization of pcp stocks a bit,
but might shave off some additional cpu time.
But we can do it later too.

This part is a little bit hard to follow, how about something like this
(completely untested):
{
stocked = (idx == NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE_B) ? &stock->nr_slab_reclaimable_b
: &stock->nr_slab_unreclaimable_b;
if (abs(*stocked + nr) > PAGE_SIZE) {
nr += *stocked;
*stocked = 0;
} else {
*stocked += nr;
nr = 0;
}
