Subject: mm/page_ext: enable early_page_ext when CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG=y
Date: Thu, 21 Mar 2024 09:36:43 -0700
For all page allocations to be tagged, page_ext has to be initialized
before the first page allocation. Early tasks allocate their stacks using
page allocator before alloc_node_page_ext() initializes page_ext area,
unless early_page_ext is enabled. Therefore these allocations will
generate a warning when CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG is enabled.
Enable early_page_ext whenever CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG=y to
ensure page_ext initialization prior to any page allocation. This will
have all the negative effects associated with early_page_ext, such as
possible longer boot time, therefore we enable it only when debugging with
CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG enabled and not universally for
CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING.
