Subject[PATCH v2] mm, kcsan: Instrument SLAB/SLUB free with "ASSERT_EXCLUSIVE_ACCESS"
From
Provide the necessary KCSAN checks to assist with debugging racy
use-after-frees. While KASAN is more reliable at generally catching such
use-after-frees (due to its use of a quarantine), it can be difficult to
debug racy use-after-frees. If a reliable reproducer exists, KCSAN can
assist in debugging such issues.

Note: ASSERT_EXCLUSIVE_ACCESS is a convenience wrapper if the size is
simply sizeof(var). Instead, here we just use __kcsan_check_access()
explicitly to pass the correct size.

v2:
* SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU allows racy use after free within RCU grace
period. If slab is SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU do not check access.
