commit d35652a5fc9944784f6f50a5c979518ff8dacf61 upstream.
Fei has reported that KASAN triggers during apply_alternatives() on
a 5-level paging machine:
BUG: KASAN: out-of-bounds in rcu_is_watching()
Read of size 4 at addr ff110003ee6419a0 by task swapper/0/0
...
__asan_load4()
rcu_is_watching()
trace_hardirqs_on()
text_poke_early()
apply_alternatives()
...
On machines with 5-level paging, cpu_feature_enabled(X86_FEATURE_LA57)
gets patched. It includes KASAN code, where KASAN_SHADOW_START depends on
__VIRTUAL_MASK_SHIFT, which is defined with cpu_feature_enabled().
KASAN gets confused when apply_alternatives() patches the
KASAN_SHADOW_START users. A test patch that makes KASAN_SHADOW_START
static, by replacing __VIRTUAL_MASK_SHIFT with 56, works around the issue.
Fix it for real by disabling KASAN while the kernel is patching alternatives.
