What if instead of writing SLAB_MEMORY_SANITIZE_VALUE, we wrote 0's?
That still destroys the information, but it has the positive effect of
allowing a kzalloc() call to avoid zeroing the slab object.  It might
mitigate some of the performance impact.

If this is on at compile time, but booted with sanitize_slab=off, is
there a performance impact?
