- 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.
