I have trouble understanding what this code is doing...

So the goal is to call strcpy with such an address, that the first 8
bytes (partially) cover 2 granules, one accessible and the other is
not?

If so, can we not do something like:

src = kmalloc(KASAN_GRANULE_SIZE, GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_ZERO);
strscpy(src, "aabbcceeddeeffg\0", size);
strscpy(ptr, src + KASAN_GRANULE_SIZE - 2, sizeof(unsigned long));

Otherwise, this code needs more explanatory comments and it's probably
better to move it out to a helper function.
