fs: dcache: manually unpoison dname after allocation to shut up kasan…

We need to manually unpoison rounded up allocation size for dname to avoid
kasan's reports in dentry_string_cmp().  When CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS=y
dentry_string_cmp may access few bytes beyound requested in kmalloc()
size.

dentry_string_cmp() relates on that fact that dentry allocated using
kmalloc and kmalloc internally round up allocation size.  So this is not a
bug, but this makes kasan to complain about such accesses.  To avoid such
reports we mark rounded up allocation size in shadow as accessible.
