kasan: modify kmalloc_large_oob_right(), add kmalloc_pagealloc_oob_right()
This patchset implements SLAB support for KASAN Unlike SLUB, SLAB doesn't store allocation/deallocation stacks for heap objects, therefore we reimplement this feature in mm/kasan/stackdepot.c. The intention is to ultimately switch SLUB to use this implementation as well, which will save a lot of memory (right now SLUB bloats each object by 256 bytes to store the allocation/deallocation stacks). Also neither SLUB nor SLAB delay the reuse of freed memory chunks, which is necessary for better detection of use-after-free errors. We introduce memory quarantine (mm/kasan/quarantine.c), which allows delayed reuse of deallocated memory. This patch (of 7): Rename kmalloc_large_oob_right() to kmalloc_pagealloc_oob_right(), as the test only checks the page allocator functionality. Also reimplement kmalloc_large_oob_right() so that the test allocates a large enough chunk of memory that still does not trigger the page allocator fallback.
