It could only be enabed explicitly by init_mem_debugging_and_hardening(). But after the 51cba1eb static branch could already be enabled by default. There was no code to ever disable it. That caused page_poison=1 / init_on_free=1 conflict. This change extends init_mem_debugging_and_hardening() to also disable static branch disabling.
