Commit 556a169dab38b5100df6f4a45b655dddd3db94c1 ("slab: fix bootstrap on
memoryless node") introduced bootstrap-time cache_cache list3s for all nodes
but forgot that initkmem_list3 needs to be accessed by [somevalue + node]. This
patch fixes list_add() corruption in mm/slab.c seen on the ES7000.

Andrew/Christoph, this needs to go into 2.6.25 and probably 2.6.24.x as
well. Hopefully either Mel or Olaf can test this on their machines to
confirm the fix doesn't break their setup.
