kmalloc redzone check for slub has been merged, and it's better to add a kunit case for it, which is inspired by a real-world case as described in commit 120ee599b5bf ("staging: octeon-usb: prevent memory corruption"): " octeon-hcd will crash the kernel when SLOB is used. This usually happens after the 18-byte control transfer when a device descriptor is read. The DMA engine is always transferring full 32-bit words and if the transfer is shorter, some random garbage appears after the buffer. The problem is not visible with SLUB since it rounds up the allocations to word boundary, and the extra bytes will go undetected. " To avoid interrupting the normal functioning of kmalloc caches, a kmem_cache mimicing kmalloc cache is created with similar and all necessary flags to have kmalloc-redzone enabled, and kmalloc_trace() is used to really test the orig_size and redzone setup.
