Could we make it more clear?
Since commit 946fa0dbf2d8 ("mm/slub: extend redzone check to extra allocated
kmalloc space than requested"), setting orig_size treats the wasted space
(object_size - orig_size) as a redzone. However with init_on_free=1 we clear
the full object->size, including the redzone.
Additionally we clear the object metadata, including the stored orig_size,
making it zero, which makes check_object() treat the the whole object as a
redzone.
These issues lead to the following BUG report with "slub_debug=FUZ
init_on_free=1":

By the way Feng, have you noticed the other issue we have, with krealloc()
and redzoning? Want to look at that? Thanks.

I agree. As for the "code is larger for !CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG" concern I think
the code will be eliminated anyway, because of the
if (!slub_debug_orig_size(s))
return;
and slub_debug_orig_size() does kmem_cache_debug_flags() which is a
compile-time false for !CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG.
