mm/slab: use unsigned long for orig_size to ensure proper metadata align

When both KASAN and SLAB_STORE_USER are enabled, accesses to
struct kasan_alloc_meta fields can be misaligned on 64-bit architectures.
This occurs because orig_size is currently defined as unsigned int,
which only guarantees 4-byte alignment. When struct kasan_alloc_meta is
placed after orig_size, it may end up at a 4-byte boundary rather than
the required 8-byte boundary on 64-bit systems.

Note that 64-bit architectures without HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS
are assumed to require 64-bit accesses to be 64-bit aligned.
See HAVE_64BIT_ALIGNED_ACCESS and commit adab66b71abf ("Revert:
"ring-buffer: Remove HAVE_64BIT_ALIGNED_ACCESS"") for more details.

Change orig_size from unsigned int to unsigned long to ensure proper
alignment for any subsequent metadata. This should not waste additional
memory because kmalloc objects are already aligned to at least
ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN.
