Subject: mm: kfence: fix handling discontiguous page

The struct pages could be discontiguous when the kfence pool is allocated
via alloc_contig_pages() with CONFIG_SPARSEMEM and
!CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP.

This may result in setting PG_slab and memcg_data to a arbitrary
address (may be not used as a struct page), which in the worst case
might corrupt the kernel.

So the iteration should use nth_page().
