[PATCH mm v5 05/39] kasan, page_alloc: init memory of skipped pages on free

From: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl at google.com>
Since commit 7a3b83537188 ("kasan: use separate (un)poison implementation
for integrated init"), when all init, kasan_has_integrated_init(), and
skip_kasan_poison are true, free_pages_prepare() doesn't initialize
the page. This is wrong.
Fix it by remembering whether kasan_poison_pages() performed
initialization, and call kernel_init_free_pages() if it didn't.
Reordering kasan_poison_pages() and kernel_init_free_pages() is OK,
since kernel_init_free_pages() can handle poisoned memory.

Changes v2->v3:
- Drop Fixes tag, as the patch won't cleanly apply to older kernels
anyway. The commit is mentioned in the patch description.
Changes v1->v2:
- Reorder kasan_poison_pages() and free_pages_prepare() in this patch
instead of doing it in the previous one.
