Subject: kasan: Move generic KASAN page tables out of BSS too
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9f7f685758c6988a6076d4a494d20e99337b79ed;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

kasan: Move generic KASAN page tables out of BSS too

Make sure that all KASAN page tables are emitted into the .pgtbl section
(provided that the arch has one - otherwise, fall back to page aligned
BSS)

This is needed because BSS itself is no longer accessible via the linear
map on arm64.
