From: Dongli Zhang <dongli.zhang@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/slub.c: fix corrupted freechain in deactivate_slab() The slub_debug is able to fix the corrupted slab freelist/page. However, alloc_debug_processing() only checks the validity of current and next freepointer during allocation path. As a result, once some objects have their freepointers corrupted, deactivate_slab() may lead to page fault. Below is from a test kernel module when 'slub_debug=PUF,kmalloc-128 slub_nomerge'. The test kernel corrupts the freepointer of one free object on purpose. Unfortunately, deactivate_slab() does not detect it when iterating the freechain.

Once an object's freepointer is corrupted, all following objects starting at this object are isolated.
