Subject: [PATCH v2 02/10] slub: separate out sysfs_slab_release() from
 sysfs_slab_remove()

Separate out slub sysfs removal and release, and call the former
earlier from __kmem_cache_shutdown().  There's no reason to defer
sysfs removal through RCU and this will later allow us to remove sysfs
files way earlier during memory cgroup offline instead of release.

v2: Add slab_state >= FULL test to sysfs_slab_release() so that
    kobject_put() is skipped for caches which aren't fully initialized
    as before.  This most likely leaks the kmem_cache on init failure
    as we're skipping the only release path.  Let's fix that up later.

v2 of the patch.  Fixes boot failure reported by the test bot.

Thanks.
