I really begin to think we have a bug here...

In previous reports, I suggested to use slub_nomerge because I thought
one corruption from another kernel layer was going on.

(inetpeer was using 64 bytes objects). But now that inetpeer objects are
bigger and sit in another kmemcache, its bad news.

Could you try this, and eventually add some SLUB debugging stuff as
well ?
