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 override init_on_free=1.

Before the change it did not work as expected 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.

Change since v2:
- Added 'Fixes:' and 'CC: stable@' suggested by Vlastimil and David
- Renamed local variable to 'page_poisoning_requested' for
   consistency suggested by David
- Simplified initialization of page_poisoning_requested suggested
   by David
- Added 'Acked-by: Vlastimil'
