5.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@xxxxxxxxxx> commit e7d24c0aa8e678f41457d1304e2091cac6fd1a2e upstream. The .head.text section carries the startup code that runs with the MMU off or with a translation of memory that deviates from the ordinary one. So avoid instrumentation with the stackleak plugin, which already avoids .init.text and .noinstr.text entirely.
