Hi,
I also notice this problem, how about another method to fix it:

diff --git a/mm/kasan/kasan.c b/mm/kasan/kasan.c
index 5d65d06..6a20dda 100644
--- a/mm/kasan/kasan.c
+++ b/mm/kasan/kasan.c
@@ -140,7 +140,7 @@ static __always_inline bool memory_is_poisoned_16(unsigned long addr)
if (unlikely(shadow_first_bytes))
return true;

- if (likely(!last_byte))
+ if (likely(last_byte >= 7))
return false;

return memory_is_poisoned_1(addr + 15);

This method can ensure consistency of code, for example, in memory_is_poisoned_8:

static __always_inline bool memory_is_poisoned_8(unsigned long addr)
{
u16 *shadow_addr = (u16 *)kasan_mem_to_shadow((void *)addr);

if (unlikely(*shadow_addr)) {
if (memory_is_poisoned_1(addr + 7))
return true;

if (likely(((addr + 7) & KASAN_SHADOW_MASK) >= 7))
return false;

return unlikely(*(u8 *)shadow_addr);
}

return false;
}

Otherwise, we also should use IS_ALIGNED macro in memory_is_poisoned_8!
