Recent use of ksize() in network stack (commit ca44ac38 : net: don't
reallocate skb->head unless the current one hasn't the needed extra size
or is shared) triggers kmemcheck warnings, because ksize() can return
more space than kmemcheck is aware of.

Pekka Enberg noticed SLAB+kmemcheck is doing the right thing, while SLUB
+kmemcheck doesnt.

Bugzilla reference #27212
