[PATCH 07/31] kasan: only apply __GFP_ZEROTAGS when memory is zeroed

From: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl at google.com>
__GFP_ZEROTAGS should only be effective if memory is being zeroed.
Currently, hardware tag-based KASAN violates this requirement.
Fix by including an initialization check along with checking for
__GFP_ZEROTAGS.
