mm/slub: fix a slab missed to be freed problem

When enable kasan and kfence's in-kernel kunit test with slub_debug on,
it caught a problem (in linux-next tree):

It was biscted to commit c7323a5ad078 ("mm/slub: restrict sysfs
validation to debug caches and make it safe")

The problem is inside free_debug_processing(), under certain
circumstances the slab can be removed from the partial list but not
freed by discard_slab() and thus n->nr_slabs is not decreased
accordingly. During shutdown, this non-zero n->nr_slabs is detected and
reported.

Specifically, the problem is that there are two checks for detecting a
full partial list by comparing n->nr_partial >= s->min_partial where the
latter check is affected by remove_partial() decreasing n->nr_partial
between the checks. Reoganize the code so there is a single check
upfront.
