[BUG] 2.6.17-rc3 : slab error in kmem_cache_destroy(): cache `dcookie_cache': Can't free all objects

[Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com>]

It seems reproductible, on dual Opteron (x86_64), NUMA enabled.

When issuing : 

opcontrol --deinit

slab error in kmem_cache_destroy(): cache `dcookie_cache': Can't free all 
objects

Call Trace: <ffffffff802715ef>{kmem_cache_destroy+175}

slabdata      0      0      0


After that, oprofile cannot work anymore, since the dcookie_cache cannot be 
re-created...
