While making slub available for RT I noticed, that during CPU offline
for each kmem_cache __flush_cpu_slab() is called on a live CPU. This
correctly flushs the cpu_slab of the dead CPU via flush_slab. Though
unfreeze_partials which is called from __flush_cpu_slab() after that
looks at the cpu_slab of the cpu on which this is called. So we fail
to look at the partials of the dead cpu.

Correct this by extending the arguments of unfreeze_partials with the
target cpu number and use per_cpu_ptr instead of this_cpu_ptr.
