fixing commit 8e7f37f2aaa5 ("mm: Add mem_dump_obj() to print source
of memory block")
with current code, Backtrace of allocated object is coming wrong:
/ # cat /proc/meminfo
[ 14.969843] slab kmalloc-64 start c8ab0140 data offset 64 pointer offset 0 size 64 allocated at 0x6b6b6b6b

[ 14.972891] meminfo_proc_show+0x40/0x4fc
And reason is red zone was not adjusted from object address.
after adding fixup for redzone, backtrace is coming correct:
/ # cat /proc/meminfo
