The message argument isn't used here. Let's pass the string to the
printk message so that the developer can figure out what's happening,
instead of guessing that a redzone is being restored, etc.

Ideally, the slab_fix function would be marked with __printf and the
format here would not use \n as that's emitted by the slab_fix.
Thanks. I can make this into a proper patch and author it from you. Can
you provide a signed-off-by? The restore_bytes() hunk is slightly
different but I can fix that up.
