The address still includes the tags when it is printed.
With hardware tag-based kasan enabled, we will get a
false positive KASAN issue when we access metadata.

Reset the tag before we access the metadata.

Note, in this case Suggested-by is inappropriate, because I did not
suggest the change in any way (you already had it in v1). I just
commented on the fact that it's missing a Fixes so stable can pick it
up and some clarification.
