Previously, the restore occurred after printing the object in slub.
After commit 47d911b02c ("slab: make check_object() more consistent"),
the bytes are printed after the restore. This information about the bytes
before the restore is highly valuable for debugging purpose.
For instance, in a event of cache issue, it displays byte patterns
by breaking them down into 64-bytes units. Without this information,
we can only speculate on how it was broken. Hence the corrupted regions
should be printed prior to the restoration process. However if an object
breaks in multiple places, the same log may be output multiple times.
Therefore the slub log is reported only once to prevent redundant printing,
by sending a parameter indicating whether an error has occurred previously.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
