You are right, that concerned me too. In first version, I make it depend
on CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON==y, but most user' and distribution's kernel
won't enable it, and user have to rebuild kernel to test. So I changed
to this check finally.

If there is a way to judge whether 'slub_debug' is enabled, that would
solve this issue.

Yep, I thought about that, and the problem was the krealloc a new 128B
object.

Yes.

Yep, this should work. As redzone was tested in earlier check, and
not necessary to be checked again here. Will do some test on this.
