Christophe Leroy 4c42dc5c69 powerpc/kasan: Fix CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC for 8xx
Before the commit identified below, pages tables allocation was
performed after the allocation of final shadow area for linear memory.
But that commit switched the order, leading to page tables being
already allocated at the time 8xx kasan_init_shadow_8M() is called.
Due to this, kasan_init_shadow_8M() doesn't map the needed
shadow entries because there are already page tables.

kasan_init_shadow_8M() installs huge PMD entries instead of page
tables. We could at that time free the page tables, but there is no
point in creating page tables that get freed before being used.

Only book3s/32 hash needs early allocation of page tables. For other
variants, we can keep the initial order and create remaining page
tables after the allocation of final shadow memory for linear mem.

Move back the allocation of shadow page tables for
CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC into kasan_init() after the loop which creates
final shadow memory for linear mem.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
