From: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: kasan, slub: handle pointer tags in early_kmem_cache_node_alloc The previous patch updated KASAN hooks signatures and their usage in SLAB and SLUB code, except for the early_kmem_cache_node_alloc function. This patch handles that function separately, as it requires to reorder some of the initialization code to correctly propagate a tagged pointer in case a tag is assigned by kasan_kmalloc.
