From: "Mike Rapoport (IBM)" <rppt@xxxxxxxxxx> Since commit f6f37d9320a1 ("arm64: select KASAN_VMALLOC for SW/HW_TAGS modes") KASAN_VMALLOC is always enabled when KASAN is on. This means that allocations in module_alloc() will be tracked by KASAN protection for vmalloc() and that kasan_alloc_module_shadow() will be always an empty inline and there is no point in calling it. Drop meaningless call to kasan_alloc_module_shadow() from module_alloc().
