A previous commit added resetting KASAN page tags to kernel_init_free_pages() to avoid false-positives due to accesses to metadata with the hardware tag-based mode. That commit did reset page tags before the metadata access, but didn't restore them after. As the result, KASAN fails to detect bad accesses to page_alloc allocations on some configurations. Fix this by recovering the tag after the metadata access.
