From: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.du...@linux.intel.com> Currently the page poisoning setting wasn't being enabled unless free page hinting was enabled. However we will need the page poisoning tracking logic as well for unused page reporting. As such pull it out and make it a separate bit of config in the probe function.
In addition we can actually wrap the code in a check for NO_SANITY. If we don't care what is actually in the page we can just default to 0 and leave it there.
