Sergei Trofimovich 69e5d322a2 mm: page_alloc: fix page_poison=1 / INIT_ON_ALLOC_DEFAULT_ON interaction
To reproduce the failure we need the following system:

 - kernel command: page_poison=1 init_on_free=0 init_on_alloc=0

 - kernel config:
    * CONFIG_INIT_ON_ALLOC_DEFAULT_ON=y
    * CONFIG_INIT_ON_FREE_DEFAULT_ON=y
    * CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING=y

Resulting in:

Before commit 51cba1ebc6 ("init_on_alloc: Optimize static branches")
init_on_alloc never enabled static branch by default.  It could only be
enabed explicitly by init_mem_debugging_and_hardening().

But after commit 51cba1ebc6, a 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.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
