Thanks for the fix! I missed to test the 'init_on_free' case back then.

Current get_orig_size() and set_orig_size() are protected by
CONFIG_SLUB_DEUG=y macro, and with this patch, they will be called
in both ON and OFF case. Maybe we can just lift those existing
functions out of the "#ifdef CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG" protection?

Thanks,
Feng
