slub: free_list() cleanup
free_list looked a bit screwy so here is an attempt to clean it up.
free_list is is only used for freeing partial lists. We do not need to return a
parameter if we decrement nr_partial within the function which allows a
simplification of the whole thing.
The current version modifies nr_partial outside of the list_lock which is
technically not correct. It was only ok because we should be the only user of
this slab cache at this point.
