Subject: arm/kasan: fix the array size of kasan_early_shadow_pte[]
The size of kasan_early_shadow_pte[] now is PTRS_PER_PTE which defined to
512 for arm architecture. This means that it only covers the prev Linux
pte entries, but not the HWTABLE pte entries for arm.
The reason it works well current is that the symbol
kasan_early_shadow_page immediately following kasan_early_shadow_pte in
memory is page aligned, which makes kasan_early_shadow_pte look like a 4KB
size array. But we can't ensure the order always right with different
compiler/linker, nor more bss symbols be introduced.
We had a test with QEMU + vexpress：put a 512KB-size symbol with
attribute __section(".bss..page_aligned") after kasan_early_shadow_pte,
and poison it after kasan_early_init(). Then enabled CONFIG_KASAN, it
failed to boot up.
