Shaohua Li 130655ef09 slub: add slab with one free object to partial list tail 
The slab has just one free object, adding it to partial list head doesn't make
sense. And it can cause lock contentation. For example,
1. CPU takes the slab from partial list
2. fetch an object
3. switch to another slab
4. free an object, then the slab is added to partial list again
In this way n->list_lock will be heavily contended.
In fact, Alex had a hackbench regression. 3.1-rc1 performance drops about 70%
against 3.0. This patch fixes it.
