kmemcheck: fix shadow updates that cross page boundaries

This patch fixes a memory corruption.

For page allocations of order > 0 and possibly also scatter-gather
DMA, kmemcheck_mark_initialized() might cross page boundaries for
the tracked object. kmemcheck would then do a memset() on the
shadow bytemap, but the memset could cross into another (arbitrary)
page.

Fix it by breaking up the shadow update across page boundaries, and
memset() each page separately.
