Subject: kasan, slub: move kasan_poison_slab hook before page_address

With tag based KASAN page_address() looks at the page flags to see whether
the resulting pointer needs to have a tag set.  Since we don't want to set
a tag when page_address() is called on SLAB pages, we call
page_kasan_tag_reset() in kasan_poison_slab().  However in allocate_slab()
page_address() is called before kasan_poison_slab().  Fix it by changing
the order.
