mm: slub: disable KMSAN when checking the padding bytes
Even though the KMSAN warnings generated by memchr_inv() are suppressed by metadata_access_enable(), its return value may still be poisoned. The reason is that the last iteration of memchr_inv() returns `*start != value ? start : NULL`, where *start is poisoned. Because of this, somewhat counterintuitively, the shadow value computed by visitSelectInst() is equal to `(uintptr_t)start`. One possibility to fix this, since the intention behind guarding memchr_inv() behind metadata_access_enable() is to touch poisoned metadata without triggering KMSAN, is to unpoison its return value. However, this approach is too fragile. So simply disable the KMSAN checks in the respective functions.
