yes , it is fix up in cpuup_canceled  it's
currently manipulating the alien cache for the canceled cpu's node which  may be the same as the node being operated on in the __cache_free_alien func.

void cpuup_canceled
{
        n = get_node(cachep, node);
        spin_lock_irq(&n->list_lock);
        ...
        n->alien = NULL;
        spin_unlock_irq(&n->list_lock);
         ....
}
