Since commit d52888aa2753 ("x86/mm: Move LDT remap out of KASLR region on
5-level paging") kernel doesn't boot with KASAN on 5-level paging machines.
The bug is actually in early_p4d_offset() and introduced by commit
12a8cc7fcf54 ("x86/kasan: Use the same shadow offset for 4- and 5-level paging")
early_p4d_offset() tries to convert pgd_val(*pgd) value to physical
address. This doesn't make sense because pgd_val() already contains
physical address.
It did work prior to commit d52888aa2753 because the result of
"__pa_nodebug(pgd_val(*pgd)) & PTE_PFN_MASK" was the same as
"pgd_val(*pgd) & PTE_PFN_MASK". __pa_nodebug() just set some high bit
which were masked out by applying PTE_PFN_MASK.
After the change of the PAGE_OFFSET offset in commit d52888aa2753
__pa_nodebug(pgd_val(*pgd)) started to return value with more high bits
set and PTE_PFN_MASK wasn't enough to mask out all of them. So we've got
wrong not even canonical address and crash on the attempt to dereference it.
