When do_tune_cpucache() is called at bootup, I'm not sure how safe it is
to do the kzalloc() thing.

The kzalloc thing is safe as we have already successfully boostrapped
all kmalloc caches at that point. The per-CPU caches that are replaced
by do_tune_cpucache() point to boostrap-time array caches there (see
use of struct arraycache_init in setup_cpu_cache).
