list_slab_objects() is called when a slab is destroyed and there are
objects still left to list the objects in the syslog. This is a pretty
rare event.
And there it seems we take the list_lock and call kmalloc while holding
that lock.
Perform the allocation in free_partial() before the list_lock is taken.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
