Subject: [PATCH] mm/slab.c: add node spinlock protect in __cache_free_alien

From: Zhang Qiang <qiang.zhang@...driver.com>

We should add node spinlock protect "n->alien" which may be
assigned to NULL in cpuup_canceled func. cause address access
exception.

Fixes: 18bf854117c6 ("slab: use get_node() and kmem_cache_node() functions")
