Better than subtle race conditions which is the usual :)

Yeah built with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON, and booted with and without slub_debug
options.

Hmm, not sure. Who's SLUB maintainer? :)

I was modelling it on the logic in check_valid_pointer(), which also does the
restore_red_left(), and then checks for % s->size:

static inline int check_valid_pointer(struct kmem_cache *s,
				struct page *page, void *object)
{
	void *base;

	if (!object)
		return 1;

	base = page_address(page);
	object = restore_red_left(s, object);
	if (object < base || object >= base + page->objects * s->size ||
		(object - base) % s->size) {
		return 0;
	}

	return 1;
}

cheers
