slab: distinguish lock and trylock for sheaf_flush_main()

commit 48647d3f9a644d1e81af6558102d43cdb260597b upstream.

sheaf_flush_main() can be called from __pcs_replace_full_main() where
it's fine if the trylock fails, and pcs_flush_all() where it's not
expected to and for some flush callers (when destroying the cache or
memory hotremove) it would be actually a problem if it failed and left
the main sheaf not flushed. The flush callers can however safely use
local_lock() instead of trylock.

The trylock failure should not happen in practice on !PREEMPT_RT, but
can happen on PREEMPT_RT. The impact is limited in practice because when
a trylock fails in the kmem_cache_destroy() path, it means someone is
using the cache while destroying it, which is a bug on its own. The memory
hotremove path is unlikely to be employed in a production RT config, but
it's possible.

To fix this, split the function into sheaf_flush_main() (using
local_lock()) and sheaf_try_flush_main() (using local_trylock()) where
both call __sheaf_flush_main_batch() to flush a single batch of objects.
This will also allow lockdep to verify our context assumptions.

The problem was raised in an off-list question by Marcelo.
