Hao Ge ab7ca09520 mm/slub: add check for s->flags in the alloc_tagging_slab_free_hook
When enable CONFIG_MEMCG & CONFIG_KFENCE & CONFIG_KMEMLEAK, the following
warning always occurs,This is because the following call stack occurred:
mem_pool_alloc
    kmem_cache_alloc_noprof
        slab_alloc_node
            kfence_alloc

Once the kfence allocation is successful,slab->obj_exts will not be empty,
because it has already been assigned a value in kfence_init_pool.

Since in the prepare_slab_obj_exts_hook function,we perform a check for
s->flags & (SLAB_NO_OBJ_EXT | SLAB_NOLEAKTRACE),the alloc_tag_add function
will not be called as a result.Therefore,ref->ct remains NULL.

However,when we call mem_pool_free,since obj_ext is not empty, it
eventually leads to the alloc_tag_sub scenario being invoked.  This is
where the warning occurs.

So we should add corresponding checks in the alloc_tagging_slab_free_hook.
For __GFP_NO_OBJ_EXT case,I didn't see the specific case where it's using
kfence,so I won't add the corresponding check in
alloc_tagging_slab_free_hook for now.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
