    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.
