Yes, it is because IRQ can happen during CPU shutdown and free some
objects into offline CPU quarantine.

Thank you for reminder. v2 Will do it.

Yes, it's unnecessary. v2 will fix it.

Yes.
Is removing objects in per-cpu quarantine directly better?

struct qlist_head *q;
q = this_cpu_ptr(&cpu_quaratine);
q->offline = true;
qlist_free_all(q, NULL);
