    arm64/mm/kasan: don't use vmemmap_populate() to initialize shadow · e17d8025
    Will Deacon authored
    The kasan shadow is currently mapped using vmemmap_populate() since that
    provides a semi-convenient way to map pages into init_top_pgt.  However,
    since that no longer zeroes the mapped pages, it is not suitable for
    kasan, which requires zeroed shadow memory.
    
    Add kasan_populate_shadow() interface and use it instead of
    vmemmap_populate().  Besides, this allows us to take advantage of
    gigantic pages and use them to populate the shadow, which should save us
    some memory wasted on page tables and reduce TLB pressure.
