kfence: zero guard page after out-of-bounds access
After an out-of-bounds accesses, zero the guard page before re-protecting in kfence_guarded_free(). On one hand this helps make the failure mode of subsequent out-of-bounds accesses more deterministic, but could also prevent certain information leaks.
