Subject: mm, kasan: fix for "integrate page_alloc init with HW_TAGS"
My commit "integrate page_alloc init with HW_TAGS" changed the order of
kernel_unpoison_pages() and kernel_init_free_pages() calls. This leads to
complaints from the page unpoisoning code, as the poison pattern gets
overwritten for __GFP_ZERO allocations.
Fix by restoring the initial order. Also add a warning comment.
