Issue: In SLUB debug, hwtag kasan_unpoison() would overwrite the redzone
 in those objects with unaligned size.

This patch Adds memzero_explict() to separate the initialization for
such condition. The new code path is executed about 1.1% during nromal
booting process.

=============
Exp: QEMUv5.2(+mte)/SLUB_debug mode
code path exec : 941/80854 (1.1%)

---
Changed since v1:
 - Apply IS_ENABLED to wrap codes under SLUB debug mode.
 - Replace memset() by memzero_explict().
