The patch titled Subject: mm/kasan: prevent deadlock in kasan reporting has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-kasan-prevent-deadlock-in-kasan-reporting.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: "Aneesh Kumar K.V" <aneesh.kumar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/kasan: prevent deadlock in kasan reporting When we end up calling kasan_report in real mode, our shadow mapping for the spinlock variable will show poisoned. This will result in us calling kasan_report_error with lock_report spin lock held. To prevent this disable kasan reporting when we are priting error w.r.t kasan.
