Hi Zhenhua,

Kfence only needs its pool to be mapped as page granularity, previous
judgement was a bit over protected. Decouple it from judgement and do
page granularity mapping for kfence pool only [1].
To implement this, also relocate the kfence pool allocation before the
linear mapping setting up, arm64_kfence_alloc_pool is to allocate phys
addr, __kfence_pool is to be set after linear mapping set up.
We do the same way in our 5.10 kernel, a minor comment below,
Yeah.. low memory device can benefit from this.

The kfence_pool is no need to be initialized.

And one more missing case, kfence support late int, see commit
b33f778bba5e ("kfence: alloc kfence_pool after system startup"),
this changes will break this feature, we add a new cmdline to alloc
kfence_pool regardless of kfence_sample_interval value, maybe there some
other way to deal with this issue.
Yeah, Thanks for reminder. It seems we need only to avoid the case which
allocating pool later. kfence_pool also seems only to be allocated once,
and once allocated, will not be freed any more. So how about we raise
another change, like you mentioned bootargs indicating using feature of
b33f778bba5e ("kfence: alloc kfence_pool after system startup").
1. in arm64_kfence_alloc_pool():
if (!kfence_sample_interval && !bootargs)
return 0;
else
allocate pool
2. also do the check in late allocation,like
if (do_allocation_late && !bootargs)
