Thanks for catchig this. It's an easy fix and will do in v3.

Do you mean looping over kmalloc_caches[KMALLOC_NORMAL] and comparing
the given slab cache address? Nah man why do long loop of pointer
comparisons when we can simply check the flag of the given kmem cache.
Also this array will increase with the recent proposed random kmalloc
caches.
