slub: make sysfs file removal asynchronous

Commit bf5eb3de ("slub: separate out sysfs_slab_release() from
sysfs_slab_remove()") made slub sysfs file removals synchronous to
kmem_cache shutdown.

Unfortunately, this created a possible ABBA deadlock between slab_mutex
and sysfs draining mechanism triggering the following lockdep warning.

  ======================================================

  rmmod/1211 is trying to acquire lock:
   (s_active#120){++++.+}, at: [<ffffffff81308073>] kernfs_remove+0x23/0x40

  but task is already holding lock:
   (slab_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8120f691>] kmem_cache_destroy+0x41/0x2d0

  which lock already depends on the new lock.

  the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

It'd be the cleanest to deal with the issue by removing sysfs files
without holding slab_mutex before the rest of shutdown; however, given
the current code structure, it is pretty difficult to do so.

This patch punts sysfs file removal to a work item.  Before commit
bf5eb3de, the removal was punted to a RCU delayed work item which is
executed after release.  Now, we're punting to a different work item on
shutdown which still maintains the goal removing the sysfs files earlier
when destroying kmem_caches.
