Subject: [PATCHv4 1/2] mm/page_poison.c: Enable PAGE_POISONING as a separate option
Page poisoning is currently setup as a feature if architectures don't
have architecture debug page_alloc to allow unmapping of pages. It has
uses apart from that though. Clearing of the pages on free provides
an increase in security as it helps to limit the risk of information
leaks. Allow page poisoning to be enabled as a separate option
independent of kernel_map pages since the two features do separate
work. Because of how hiberanation is implemented, the checks on alloc
cannot occur if hibernation is enabled. The runtime alloc checks can
also be enabled with an option when !HIBERNATION.
