Kasan needs 1/8 of kernel virtual address space to be reserved as the
shadow area. And eventually it requires the shadow memory offset to be
known at compile time (passed to the compiler when full instrumentation
is enabled). Any value picked as the shadow area offset for 3-level
paging would eat up identity mapping on 4-level paging (with 1PB
shadow area size). So, the kernel sticks to 3-level paging when kasan
is enabled. 3TB border is picked as the shadow offset. The memory
layout is adjusted so, that physical memory border does not exceed
KASAN_SHADOW_START and vmemmap does not go below KASAN_SHADOW_END.
Due to the fact that on s390 paging is set up very late and to cover
more code with kasan instrumentation, temporary identity mapping and
final shadow memory are set up early. The shadow memory mapping is
later carried over to init_mm.pgd during paging_init.
For the needs of paging structures allocation and shadow memory
population a primitive allocator is used, which simply chops off
memory blocks from the end of the physical memory.
Kasan currenty doesn't track vmemmap and vmalloc areas.
Current memory layout (for 3-level paging, 2GB physical memory).
