I copied this patch (which modifies "static __always_inline void *kmalloc_node
(size_t size, gfp_t flags, int node)") to "static __always_inline void *kmalloc
(size_t size, gfp_t flags)", but it didn't help.

-------- test cases --------
        volatile unsigned int size = 0;
        void *ptr = kmalloc(size, GFP_KERNEL);
        printk("kmalloc(0)=%p\n", ptr);
        kfree(ptr);
        for (size = 1; size <= 256 * 1024 * 1024; size *= 2) {
                ptr = kmalloc(size, GFP_KERNEL);
                printk("kmalloc(%u)=%p\n", size, ptr);
                kfree(ptr);
        }

Got BUG() at 32 * 1024 * 1024 bytes.

  Kernel BUG at c10b9c9b [verbose debug info unavailable]
  invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP

There still seems to be a bug in the non-constant case.

I don't know if any, but on an architecture with PAGE_SHIFT + MAX_ORDER > 26,

  static void init_node_lock_keys(int q)
  {
          int i;
  
          if (slab_state < UP)
                  return;
  
          for (i = 1; i < PAGE_SHIFT + MAX_ORDER; i++) {
                  struct kmem_cache_node *n;
                  struct kmem_cache *cache = kmalloc_caches[i];

looks like out of bounds access due to

  #define KMALLOC_SHIFT_HIGH      ((MAX_ORDER + PAGE_SHIFT - 1) <= 25 ? \
                                  (MAX_ORDER + PAGE_SHIFT - 1) : 25)

and

  struct kmem_cache *kmalloc_caches[KMALLOC_SHIFT_HIGH + 1];
