mm: slab: fix potential double free in ___cache_free

With the commit 10befea9 ("mm: memcg/slab: use a single set of
kmem_caches for all allocations"), it becomes possible to call kfree()
from the slabs_destroy().

The functions cache_flusharray() and do_drain() calls slabs_destroy() on
array_cache of the local CPU without updating the size of the
array_cache.  This enables the kfree() call from the slabs_destroy() to
recursively call cache_flusharray() which can potentially call
free_block() on the same elements of the array_cache of the local CPU
and causing double free and memory corruption.

To fix the issue, simply update the local CPU array_cache cache before
calling slabs_destroy().
