Sorry that just see this email, and reply late.
I think it is caused by the uinon page->lru and page->next. It can be fixed by:
diff --git a/include/linux/slub_def.h b/include/linux/slub_def.h
index 3a1a1db..4aa0fb5 100644
--- a/include/linux/slub_def.h
+++ b/include/linux/slub_def.h
@@ -56,6 +56,7 @@ struct kmem_cache_cpu {
#define slub_set_percpu_partial(c, p) \
({ \
slub_percpu_partial(c) = (p)->next; \
+ p->next = NULL; \
})

I will do some test and post the fix.

Thanks,
Pingfan
