kasan, slub: fix HW_TAGS zeroing with slub_debug
Commit Message
From: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@google.com>
Commit 946fa0dbf2d8 ("mm/slub: extend redzone check to extra allocated
kmalloc space than requested") added precise kmalloc redzone poisoning
to the slub_debug functionality.
However, this commit didn't account for HW_TAGS KASAN fully initializing
the object via its built-in memory initialization feature. Even though
HW_TAGS KASAN memory initialization contains special memory initialization
handling for when slub_debug is enabled, it does not account for in-object
slub_debug redzones. As a result, HW_TAGS KASAN can overwrite these
redzones and cause false-positive slub_debug reports.
To fix the issue, avoid HW_TAGS KASAN memory initialization when slub_debug
is enabled altogether. Implement this by moving the __slub_debug_enabled
check to slab_post_alloc_hook. Common slab code seems like a more
appropriate place for a slub_debug check anyway.

Is it fixing this issue:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230628154714.GB22090@willie-the-truck/
Or some other issue?

Other than the question above, it looks sane:

Yes, my bad, messed up the Reported-by tag. The correct one should be:
