From: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: kasan: allow enabling KASAN_VMALLOC and SW/HW_TAGS Allow enabling CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC with SW_TAGS and HW_TAGS KASAN modes. Also adjust CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC description: - Mention HW_TAGS support. - Remove unneeded internal details: they have no place in Kconfig description and are already explained in the documentation.
