B & C variants show this message and A does not, which is what I would expect to happen.

Tested variants:

A. "page_poison=1 init_on_free=0 init_on_alloc=0 slub_debug=P"
B. "page_poison=1 init_on_free=0 init_on_alloc=0 slub_debug=P init_on_free=1"
C. "page_poison=1 slub_debug=P"

in common:
CONFIG_INIT_ON_ALLOC_DEFAULT_ON=y
CONFIG_INIT_ON_FREE_DEFAULT_ON=y
CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING=y
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG=y
CONFIG_SLUB=y

(the slub parts don't matter, ignore them)

While both patches(Sergei's, and yours) work for me, I'll be using this one for now.

Thank you for your work!
Cheers!
