The original kfence pool layout (Given a layout with 2 objects):
+------------+------------+------------+------------+------------+------------+
| guard page | guard page | object | guard page | object | guard page |
+------------+------------+------------+------------+------------+------------+
| | |
+----kfence_metadata[0]---+----kfence_metadata[1]---+
The comment says "the additional page in the beginning gives us an even
number of pages, which simplifies the mapping of address to metadata index".
However, removing the additional page does not complicate any mapping
calculations. So changing it to the new layout to save a page. And remmove
the KFENCE_ERROR_INVALID test since we cannot test this case easily.
The new kfence pool layout (Given a layout with 2 objects):
+------------+------------+------------+------------+------------+
| guard page | object | guard page | object | guard page |
+------------+------------+------------+------------+------------+
