From: Yee Lee <yee.lee at mediatek.com>

Issue: hwtag kasan_unpoison() would overwrite the redzone in those object with unaligned object size. This patch Adds memzero_explict() to separate the initialization for such condition. The new code path is executed about 1.1% during nromal booting process. 

=============
Exp: QEMUv5.2(+mte)/SLUB_debug
code path exec : 941/80854 (1.1%) 

---
Changed since v1:
 - Apply IS_ENABLED to wrap codes under SLUB debug mode. 
 - Replace memset() by memzero_explict().
