Might well be - I actually did ask the question before sending v3,
but didn't get any answer (yet). The kasan_zero_p?d names
suggested to me that this is a shortcut for mappings which
otherwise would be non-present anyway, but that was merely a
guess. As to W+X checks - I can't see how the result could be
any better if the protections of kasan_zero_pte[0] would be
used: Those can't possibly be applicable independent of VA.
