mm: slab: free kmem_cache_node after destroy sysfs file

When slub_debug alloc_calls_show is enabled we will try to track
location and user of slab object on each online node, kmem_cache_node
structure and cpu_cache/cpu_slub shouldn't be freed till there is the
last reference to sysfs file.

This fixes the following panic:

Separated __kmem_cache_release from __kmem_cache_shutdown which now
called on slab_kmem_cache_release (after the last reference to sysfs
file object has dropped).

Reintroduced locking in free_partial as sysfs file might access cache's
partial list after shutdowning - partial revert of the commit
69cb8e6b7c ("slub: free slabs without holding locks").  Zap
__remove_partial and use remove_partial (w/o underscores) as
free_partial now takes list_lock which s partial revert for commit
1e4dd9461f ("slub: do not assert not having lock in removing freed
partial")
