Dmitry Vyukov 1db0e0f9dd kasan: unify code between kasan_slab_free() and kasan_poison_kfree()
Both of these functions deal with freeing of slab objects.
However, kasan_poison_kfree() mishandles SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU
(must also not poison such objects) and does not detect double-frees.

Unify code between these functions.

This solves both of the problems and allows to add more common code
(e.g. detection of invalid frees).

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.
