Do we actually expect this to happen, or is this just a "robustness"
check? If we don't expect this to happen, there should be a WARN_ON()
around the condition.

Hmm... do we have this helper (instead of using the existing helpers
for modifying memory permissions) to work around the allocation out of
the data section?

The standard 5 lines of diff context don't really make it obvious
what's going on here. Here's a diff with more context:

address - ((unsigned long)tsk->stack + THREAD_SIZE) < PAGE_SIZE)) {
unsigned long stack = __this_cpu_ist_top_va(DF) -
sizeof(void *);
/*

Shouldn't kfence_handle_page_fault() happen after prefetch handling,
at least? Maybe directly above the "oops" label?
