Dmitry Vyukov 6860f6340c kasan: detect invalid frees for large mempool objects
Detect frees of pointers into middle of mempool objects.

I did a one-off test, but it turned out to be very tricky, so I reverted
it.  First, mempool does not call kasan_poison_kfree() unless allocation
function fails.  I stubbed an allocation function to fail on second and
subsequent allocations.  But then mempool stopped to call
kasan_poison_kfree() at all, because it does it only when allocation
function is mempool_kmalloc().  We could support this special failing
test allocation function in mempool, but it also can't live with kasan
tests, because these are in a module.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
