page_poison: play nicely with KASAN
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1828410
[ Upstream commit 4117992 ]
KASAN does not play well with the page poisoning (CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING).
It triggers false positives in the allocation path:
BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in memchr_inv+0x2ea/0x330
Read of size 8 at addr ffff88881f800000 by task swapper/0
CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper Not tainted 5.0.0-rc1+ #54
Call Trace:
dump_stack+0xe0/0x19a
print_address_description.cold.2+0x9/0x28b
kasan_report.cold.3+0x7a/0xb5

memchr_inv+0x2ea/0x330
kernel_poison_pages+0x103/0x3d5
get_page_from_freelist+0x15e7/0x4d90
because KASAN has not yet unpoisoned the shadow page for allocation
before it checks memchr_inv() but only found a stale poison pattern.
Also, false positives in free path,
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in kernel_poison_pages+0x29e/0x3d5
Write of size 4096 at addr ffff8888112cc000 by task swapper/0/1

memset+0x28/0x40
kernel_poison_pages+0x29e/0x3d5
__free_pages_ok+0x75f/0x13e0
due to KASAN adds poisoned redzones around slab objects, but the page
poisoning needs to poison the whole page.
