Subject: kasan: improve free meta storage in Generic KASAN
Date: Mon, 20 Nov 2023 04:46:29 +0800

Currently free meta can only be stored in object if the object is not
smaller than free meta.

After the improvement, even when the object is smaller than free meta, it
is still possible to store part of the free meta in the object, reducing
the increased size of the redzone.

Example:

free meta size: 16 bytes
alloc meta size: 16 bytes
object size: 8 bytes
optimal redzone size (object_size <= 64): 16 bytes

Before improvement:
actual redzone size = alloc meta size + free meta size = 32 bytes

After improvement:
actual redzone size = alloc meta size + (free meta size - object size)
                    = 24 bytes
