[PATCH 3/4] kasan, slab: make freelist stored without tags

[Andrey Konovalov]

Similarly to 680c37ae ("kasan, slub: move kasan_poison_slab hook before
page_address"), move kasan_poison_slab() before alloc_slabmgmt(), which
calls page_address(), to make page_address() return value to be
non-tagged. This, combined with calling kasan_reset_tag() for off-slab
slab management object, leads to freelist being stored non-tagged.
