Subject: [PATCH v2 14/34] kasan, page_alloc: simplify kasan_unpoison_pages call site

From: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@...gle.com>

Simplify the checks around kasan_unpoison_pages() call in
post_alloc_hook().

The logical condition for calling this function is:

- If a software KASAN mode is enabled, we need to mark shadow memory.
- Otherwise, HW_TAGS KASAN is enabled, and it only makes sense to
  set tags if they haven't already been cleared by tag_clear_highpage(),
  which is indicated by init_tags.

This patch concludes the simplifications for post_alloc_hook().
