Are you sure it will increase object size?
I think we overlap kasan_free_meta with the object as well. The only
case we don't overlap kasan_free_meta with the object are
SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU || cache->ctor. But these are rare and it should
only affect small objects with small redzones.
And I think now we simply have a bug for these objects, we check
KASAN_KMALLOC_FREE and then assume object contains free stack, but for
objects with ctor, they still contain live object data, we don't store
free stack in them.
Such objects can be both free and still contain user data.

It is small. But (1) why do we want to allow it at all, (2) there is
actually a more serious problem. If we mark an object as
KASAN_KMALLOC_FREE, but don't do kasan_set_free_info (because object
has ctor), now we will treat live object data as free track. We need
to fix it anyway.
