kasan, slub: fix more conflicts with CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED
When CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS is enabled, ptr_addr might be tagged. Normally, this doesn't cause any issues, as both set_freepointer() and get_freepointer() are called with a pointer with the same tag. However, there are some issues with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG code. For example, when __free_slub() iterates over objects in a cache, it passes untagged pointers to check_object(). check_object() in turns calls get_freepointer() with an untagged pointer, which causes the freepointer to be restored incorrectly. Add kasan_reset_tag to freelist_ptr(). Also add a detailed comment.
