[PATCH] mm/slub: Add taint after the errors are printed

[Georgi Djakov]

When running the kernel with panic_on_taint, the usual slub debug error
messages are not being printed when object corruption happens. That's
because we panic in add_taint(), which is called before printing the
additional information. This is a bit unfortunate as the error messages
are actually very useful, especially before a panic. Let's fix this by
moving add_taint() after the errors are printed on the console.
