[PATCH v3 2/2] kasan, slub: reset tag when printing address

From: Kuan-Ying Lee
Date: Wed Aug 04 2021 - 05:10:27 EST


The address still includes the tags when it is printed.
With hardware tag-based kasan enabled, we will get a
false positive KASAN issue when we access metadata.

Reset the tag before we access the metadata.
