Subject[PATCH] kasan: Fix tag for large allocations when using CONFIG_SLAB
Date
If an object is allocated on a tail page of a multi-page slab, kasan
will get the wrong tag because page->s_mem is NULL for tail pages.
I'm not quite sure what the user-visible effect of this might be.

Fixes: 7f94ffbc4c6a ("kasan: add hooks implementation for tag-based mode")
