There are two cases:

1) In the normal case that the memory is being freed correctly, then
DMAPOOL_DEBUG will memset the memory anyway, so speed thing up by
avoiding a double-memset of the same memory.

2) In the abnormal case that DMAPOOL_DEBUG detects that a driver passes
incorrect parameters to dma_pool_free() (e.g. double-free, invalid
free, mismatched vaddr/dma, etc.), then that is a kernel bug, and we
don't want to clear the passed-in possibly-invalid memory pointer
because we can't be sure that the memory is really free.  So don't clear
it just because init_on_free=1.
