Will this charge the folio again if it was already charged? It seems
like we avoid this for already charged slab objects below but not
here.

Would it be clearer to check if the slab cache is one of
kmalloc_caches[KMALLOC_NORMAL]? This should be doable by comparing the
address of the slab cache with the addresses of
kmalloc_cache[KMALLOC_NORMAL] (perhaps in a helper). I need to refer
to your reply to Roman to understand why this works.
