That gets rather more complicated.

So yes I agree your question is a good one - for smaller sizes I'd rather
see it from the kmalloc/static pool but for small sizes it also doesn't
matter much anyway.

Objection rescinded - I think you've proved convincingly that the only
way to sort it properly is horribly complicated
