Subject: [PATCH] slub: fix kmalloc_pagealloc_invalid_free unit test

The unit test kmalloc_pagealloc_invalid_free makes sure that for the
higher order slub allocation which goes to page allocator, the free is
called with the correct address i.e. the virtual address of the head
page.

The commit f227f0faf63b ("slub: fix unreclaimable slab stat for bulk
free") unified the free code paths for page allocator based slub
allocations but instead of using the address passed by the caller, it
extracted the address from the page. Thus making the unit test
kmalloc_pagealloc_invalid_free moot. So, fix this by using the address
passed by the caller.

Should we fix this? I think yes because dev expect kasan to catch these
type of programming bugs.
