Subject: mm: fix vrealloc()'s KASAN poisoning logic
Date: Mon, 25 Nov 2024 16:52:06 -0800

When vrealloc() reuses already allocated vmap_area, we need to re-annotate
poisoned and unpoisoned portions of underlying memory according to the new
size.

This results in a KASAN splat recorded at [1].  A KASAN mis-reporting
issue where there is none.

Note, hard-coding KASAN_VMALLOC_PROT_NORMAL might not be exactly correct,
but KASAN flag logic is pretty involved and spread out throughout
__vmalloc_node_range_noprof(), so I'm using the bare minimum flag here and
leaving the rest to mm people to refactor this logic and reuse it here.
