[PATCH] mm/kfence: reset PG_slab and memcg_data before freeing __kfence_pool

From: Hyeonggon Yoo

When kfence fails to initialize kfence pool, it frees the pool.
But it does not reset PG_slab flag and memcg_data of struct page.

Below is a BUG because of this. Let's fix it by resetting PG_slab
and memcg_data before free.
