The redzone area for SLUB exists between s->object_size and s->inuse
(which is at least the word-aligned object size). If a cache were created
with an object_size smaller than sizeof(void *), the in-object stored
freelist pointer will be overwritten by redzoning (e.g. with boot param
"slub_debug=ZV"):
BUG test (Tainted: G B ): Right Redzone overwritten

Store the freelist pointer out of line when object_size is smaller than
sizeof(void *) and redzoning is enabled.
(Note that no caches with such a size are known to exist in the kernel
currently.)
