virt_to_slab() declared in slab.h can return NULL if the address does not
belong to a slab.  This case is not handled in qlink_to_cache() in
quarantine.c, which can cause a NULL pointer dereference in
"virt_to_slab(qlink)->slab_cache".  This issue was discovered by fanalyzer
(my gcc version: 12.1.1 20220507)
