Andrey Konovalov da844b7872 kasan, mm: integrate slab init_on_alloc with HW_TAGS
This change uses the previously added memory initialization feature of
HW_TAGS KASAN routines for slab memory when init_on_alloc is enabled.

With this change, memory initialization memset() is no longer called when
both HW_TAGS KASAN and init_on_alloc are enabled.  Instead, memory is
initialized in KASAN runtime.

The memory initialization memset() is moved into slab_post_alloc_hook()
that currently directly follows the initialization loop.  A new argument
is added to slab_post_alloc_hook() that indicates whether to initialize
the memory or not.

To avoid discrepancies with which memory gets initialized that can be
caused by future changes, both KASAN hook and initialization memset() are
put together and a warning comment is added.

Combining setting allocation tags with memory initialization improves
HW_TAGS KASAN performance when init_on_alloc is enabled.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
