slab: Prevent local lock deadlock
On RT we avoid the cross cpu function calls and take the per cpu local locks instead. Now the code missed that taking the local lock on the cpu which runs the code must use the proper local lock functions and not a simple spin_lock(). Otherwise it deadlocks later when trying to acquire the local lock with the proper function.
