[PATCH mm v2] mm, kasan: fix for "integrate page_alloc init with HW_TAGS"

[Andrey Konovalov]

My commit "integrate page_alloc init with HW_TAGS" changed the order of
kernel_unpoison_pages() and kernel_init_free_pages() calls. This leads
to complaints from the page unpoisoning code, as the poison pattern gets
overwritten for __GFP_ZERO allocations.

Fix by restoring the initial order. Also add a warning comment.

Tested that the bug indeed occurs in -next and is fixed by this. Thanks.
