The quilt patch titled Subject: kasan: respect CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC for kasan_flag_vmalloc has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was kasan-respect-config_kasan_vmalloc-for-kasan_flag_vmalloc.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm ------------------------------------------------------ From: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: kasan: respect CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC for kasan_flag_vmalloc Date: Thu, 21 Dec 2023 21:04:49 +0100 Never enable the kasan_flag_vmalloc static branch unless CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC is enabled. This does not fix any observable bugs (vmalloc annotations for the HW_TAGS mode are no-op with CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC disabled) but rather just cleans up the code.
