[PATCH] kasan: infer the requested size by scanning shadow memory

We scan the shadow memory to infer the requested size instead of
printing cache->object_size directly.

This patch will fix the confusing generic kasan report like below. [1]
Report shows "cache kmalloc-192 of size 192", but user
actually kmalloc(184).

==================================================================
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in _find_next_bit+0x143/0x160 lib/find_bit.c:109
Read of size 8 at addr ffff8880175766b8 by task kworker/1:1/26
...
The buggy address belongs to the object at ffff888017576600
 which belongs to the cache kmalloc-192 of size 192
The buggy address is located 184 bytes inside of
 192-byte region [ffff888017576600, ffff8880175766c0)
...
Memory state around the buggy address:
 ffff888017576580: fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc
 ffff888017576600: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
>ffff888017576680: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc
                                        ^
 ffff888017576700: fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc
 ffff888017576780: fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc
==================================================================

After this patch, report will show "cache kmalloc-192 of size 184".
