I hope you don't mind me diving in here, I was taking a look just now
and managed to reproduce this locally - I bisected the issue to
105397399 ("kasan: simplify kasan_poison_kfree").

If I stick a simple check in as below it fixes the issue, so I'm
guessing something is violating the assumptions in 105397399?
