[PATCH 01/31] kasan, page_alloc: deduplicate should_skip_kasan_poison

From: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl at google.com>

Currently, should_skip_kasan_poison() has two definitions: one for when
CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is enabled, one for when it's not.
Instead of duplicating the checks, add a deferred_pages_enabled()
helper and use it in a single should_skip_kasan_poison() definition.

Also move should_skip_kasan_poison() closer to its caller and clarify
all conditions in the comment.
