After a discussion with Dmitry we've decided to drop |cpu| and |when|
at all, as they do not actually help debugging.
This way we'll make kasan_track only 8 bytes (4 bytes for PID, 4 bytes
for stack handle).
Then the meta structures will be smaller and have nice alignment:

struct kasan_track {
        u32 pid;
        depot_stack_handle_t stack;
};

struct kasan_alloc_meta {
        struct kasan_track track;
        u32 state : 2;  /* enum kasan_state */
        u32 alloc_size : 30;
        u32 reserved;  /* we can use it to store an additional stack
handle, e.g. for debugging RCU */
};

struct kasan_free_meta {
        /* This field is used while the object is in the quarantine.
         * Otherwise it might be used for the allocator freelist.
         */
        void **quarantine_link;
        struct kasan_track track;
};
