Kent reported an occasional KASAN splat in lockdep. Mark then noted:

That would mean @size == 0, at which point size_to_bucket() returns -1
and the above happens.
alloc_chain_hlocks() has 'size - req', for the first with the
precondition 'size >= rq', which allows the 0.
This code is trying to split a block, del_chain_block() takes what we
need, and add_chain_block() puts back the remainder, except in the
above case the remainder is 0 sized and things go sideways.

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.
