SLUB: Make lockdep happy by not calling add_partial with interrupts enabled during bootstrap
If we move the local_irq_enable() to the end of the function then
add_partial() in early_kmem_cache_node_alloc() will be called
with interrupts disabled like during regular operations.
This makes lockdep happy.
