mm/slab: validate cache membership under freelist hardening

Browse Source 
Patch series "mm/slab: Improved sanity checking".

This adds defenses against slab cache confusion (as seen in real-world
exploits[1]) and gracefully handles type confusions when trying to look
up slab caches from an arbitrary page.  (Also is patch 3: new LKDTM
tests for these defenses as well as for the existing double-free
detection.

This patch (of 3):

When building under CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENING, it makes sense to
perform sanity-checking on the assumed slab cache during
kmem_cache_free() to make sure the kernel doesn't mix freelists across
slab caches and corrupt memory (as seen in the exploitation of flaws
like CVE-2018-9568[1]).  Note that the prior code might WARN() but still
corrupt memory (i.e.  return the assumed cache instead of the owned
cache).

There is no noticeable performance impact (changes are within noise).
Measuring parallel kernel builds, I saw the following with
CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED, before and after this patch:

before:

	Run times: 288.85 286.53 287.09 287.07 287.21
	Min: 286.53 Max: 288.85 Mean: 287.35 Std Dev: 0.79

after:

	Run times: 289.58 287.40 286.97 287.20 287.01
	Min: 286.97 Max: 289.58 Mean: 287.63 Std Dev: 0.99

Delta: 0.1% which is well below the standard deviation
