I was about to send a patch that fixes some of the kobjsize() abuses to
use ksize() but then I realized that what we probably should do is
something like this instead.

I mean, assuming the BUG_ON bits are bogus, then we should always pass the
pointer to the allocator. I audited most of the callers and they all seem
to be really just using kmalloc() for allocation anyway.

What do you think?
