Subject: [PATCH RFC v2 3/6] mm: Integrate SLAB_QUARANTINE with init_on_free
Having slab quarantine without memory erasing is harmful.
If the quarantined objects are not cleaned and contain data, then:
1. they will be useful for use-after-free exploitation,
2. there is no chance to detect use-after-free access.
So we want the quarantined objects to be erased.
Enable init_on_free that cleans objects before placing them into
the quarantine. CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING should be disabled since it
cuts off init_on_free.
