OK this makes sense now

Your patch is absolutely needed, I completely forgot about SLOB :(

since, kmalloc(386) on SLOB gives exactly ksize=386 bytes, not nearest
power of two.

[   60.305763] malloc(size=385)->ffff880112c11e38 ksize=386 -> nsize=2
[   60.305921] malloc(size=385)->ffff88007c92ce28 ksize=386 -> nsize=2
[   60.306898] malloc(size=656)->ffff88007c44ad28 ksize=656 -> nsize=272
[   60.325385] malloc(size=656)->ffff88007c575868 ksize=656 -> nsize=272
[   60.325531] malloc(size=656)->ffff88011c777230 ksize=656 -> nsize=272
[   60.325701] malloc(size=656)->ffff880114011008 ksize=656 -> nsize=272
[   60.346716] malloc(size=385)->ffff880114142008 ksize=386 -> nsize=2
[   60.346900] malloc(size=385)->ffff88011c777690 ksize=386 -> nsize=2
