Subject: [PATCH 1/5] mm/slub: move struct track init out of set_track()

set_track() either zeroes out the struct track or fills it, depending on
the addr parameter. This is unnecessary as there's only one place that
calls it for the initialization - init_tracking(). We can simply do the
zeroing there, with a single memset() that covers both TRACK_ALLOC and
TRACK_FREE as they are adjacent.
