---help---
Unmap pages from the kernel linear mapping after free_pages().
This results in a large slowdown, but helps to find certain types
of memory corruptions.
generic debug pagealloc CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is now supported by x86, powerpc, sparc64, and s390. This patch implements it for the rest of the architectures by filling the pages with poison byte patterns after free_pages() and verifying the poison patterns before alloc_pages(). This generic one cannot detect invalid page accesses immediately but invalid read access may cause invalid dereference by poisoned memory and invalid write access can be detected after a long delay.

Fill the pages with poison patterns after free_pages() and verify
the patterns before alloc_pages(). This results in a large slowdown,
but helps to find certain types of memory corruptions.
This option cannot enalbe with hibernation. Otherwise, it will get
wrong messages for memory corruption because the free pages are not
saved to the suspend image.
