Hi Sasha,

This commit delays the reuse of memory after it has been freed, so
it's intended to help people find more use-after-free errors.
But I'm puzzled why the stacks are missing.
Can you please share the reproduction steps for this bug?
I also wonder whether it's reproducible when you:
- revert this commit?
- build with SLAB instead of SLUB?

HTH,
Alex
