79 * Before shutting down a cache, one must ensure there are no remaining objects

81 * directly, we need to check them here.
83 * Note that shutdown_cache() is internal to SL*B, and kmem_cache_destroy() does
84 * not return if allocated objects still exist: it prints an error message and
85 * simply aborts destruction of a cache, leaking memory.
87 * If the only such objects are KFENCE objects, we will not leak the entire
88 * cache, but instead try to provide more useful debug info by making allocated
89 * objects "zombie allocations". Objects may then still be used or freed (which
90 * is handled gracefully), but usage will result in showing KFENCE error reports
91 * which include stack traces to the user of the object, the original allocation
92 * site, and caller to shutdown_cache().
