I guess so. Doing it on a per-cpuset+per-slab or per-cpuset+per-inode basis would get a bit complex implementation-wise, I expect. And a smart application could roughly implement that itself anyway by turning spreading on and off as it goes.
One does wonder about the buffer-head slab - it's pretty tightly bound to pagecache..
