I don't understand why this needs to be renamed again. The users of
kasan_unpoison_memory() outweigh those of kasan_unpoison_slab(), of
which there seems to be only 1!

So can't we just get rid of kasan_unpoison_slab() and just open-code it
in mm/mempool.c:kasan_unpoison_element()? That function is already
kasan-prefixed, so we can even place a small comment there (which would
also be an improvement over current interface, since
kasan_unpoison_slab() is not documented and its existence not quite
justified).

This function is so simple, I think just open-coding 

	kasan_unpoison_memory(ptr, __ksize(ptr))

wherever required is much simpler, also bearing in mind the changes that
are coming to the rest of this series.
