This commit fixes commit 8e7f37f2aaa5 ("mm: Add mem_dump_obj() to print
source of memory block").
With current code, the backtrace of allocated object is incorrect:
/ # cat /proc/meminfo
[ 14.969843] slab kmalloc-64 start c8ab0140 data offset 64 pointer offset 0 size 64 allocated at 0x6b6b6b6b

[ 14.972734] 0xc8ab0400
[ 14.972891] meminfo_proc_show+0x40/0x4fc
The reason is that the object address was not adjusted for the red zone.
With this fix, the backtrace is correct:
/ # cat /proc/meminfo
[ 14.870782] slab kmalloc-64 start c8ab0140 data offset 64 pointer offset 128 size 64 allocated at meminfo_proc_show+0x40/0x4f4

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 Restructured Text 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.
