arm: print alloc free paths for address in registers
In case of a use after free kernel oops, the freeing path of the object is required to debug futher. In most of cases the object address is present in one of the registers. Thus check the register's address and if it belongs to slab, print its alloc and free path. e.g. in the below issue register r6 belongs to slab, and a use after free issue occurred on one of its dereferenced values: Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 6b6b6b6f .... pc : [<c0538afc>] lr : [<c0465674>] psr: 60000013 sp : c8927d40 ip : ffffefff fp : c8aa8020 r10: c8927e10 r9 : 00000001 r8 : 00400cc0 r7 : 00000000 r6 : c8ab0180 r5 : c1804a80 r4 : c8aa8008 r3 : c1a5661c r2 : 00000000 r1 : 6b6b6b6b r0 : c139bf48 .....
