On !ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC (like ia64) debug_pagealloc=1
implies page_poison=on:

    if (page_poisoning_enabled() ||
         (!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC) &&
          debug_pagealloc_enabled()))
            static_branch_enable(&_page_poisoning_enabled);

page_poison=on needs to init_on_free=1.

Before the change id happened too late for the following case:
- have PAGE_POISONING=y
- have page_poison unset
- have !ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC arch (like ia64)
- have init_on_free=1
- have debug_pagealloc=1

That way we get both keys enabled:
- static_branch_enable(&init_on_free);
- static_branch_enable(&_page_poisoning_enabled);

which leads to poisoned pages returned for __GFP_ZERO pages.

After the change we execute only:
- static_branch_enable(&_page_poisoning_enabled);
and ignore init_on_free=1.
