I was about to send a patch that fixes some of the kobjsize() abuses to 
use ksize() but then I realized that what we probably should do is 
something like this instead.

I mean, assuming the BUG_ON bits are bogus, then we should always pass the 
pointer to the allocator. I audited most of the callers and they all seem 
to be really just using kmalloc() for allocation anyway.

What do you think?
