[PATCH 1/2] kasan: fix invalid-free test crashing the kernel

[Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@google.com>]

When an invalid-free is triggered by one of the KASAN tests, the object
doesn't actually get freed. This later leads to a BUG failure in
kmem_cache_destroy that checks that there are no allocated objects in the
cache that is being destroyed. Fix this by calling kmem_cache_free with
the proper object address after the call that triggers invalid-free.
