kasan: fix invalid-free test crashing the kernel

When an invalid-free is triggered by one of the KASAN tests, the object
doesn't actually get freed.  This later leads to a BUG failure in
kmem_cache_destroy that checks that there are no allocated objects in
the cache that is being destroyed.

Fix this by calling kmem_cache_free with the proper object address after
the call that triggers invalid-free.
