From: Kees Cook keescook@chromium.org Subject: mm/slub: fix redzoning for small allocations
The redzone area for SLUB exists between s->object_size and s->inuse (which is at least the word-aligned object_size). If a cache were created with an object_size smaller than sizeof(void *), the in-object stored freelist pointer would overwrite the redzone (e.g. with boot param "slub_debug=ZF"):
BUG test (Tainted: G B ): Right Redzone overwritten -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Store the freelist pointer out of line when object_size is smaller than sizeof(void *) and redzoning is enabled.
Additionally remove the "smaller than sizeof(void *)" check under CONFIG_DEBUG_VM in kmem_cache_sanity_check() as it is now redundant: SLAB and SLOB both handle small sizes.
(Note that no caches within this size range are known to exist in the kernel currently.)
