This is a weak version of "introduce init_on_alloc=1 and init_on_free=1
boot options", which zero out page in a asynchronous way. For users can't
tolerate the impaction of 'init_on_alloc=1' or 'init_on_free=1' brings,
this feauture provide another choice.

Most of the usecases are about the start up time imporvemtns IIUC. Have
you tried to use init_on_free or this would be prohibitive for your
workloads?
