kasan: unpoison vms[area] addresses with a common tag
A KASAN tag mismatch, possibly causing a kernel panic, can be observed on
systems with a tag-based KASAN enabled and with multiple NUMA nodes. It
was reported on arm64 and reproduced on x86. It can be explained in the
following points:
1. There can be more than one virtual memory chunk.
2. Chunk's base address has a tag.
3. The base address points at the first chunk and thus inherits
the tag of the first chunk.
4. The subsequent chunks will be accessed with the tag from the
first chunk.
5. Thus, the subsequent chunks need to have their tag set to
match that of the first chunk.
Use the new vmalloc flag that disables random tag assignment in
__kasan_unpoison_vmalloc() - pass the same random tag to all the
vm_structs by tagging the pointers before they go inside
__kasan_unpoison_vmalloc(). Assigning a common tag resolves the pcpu
chunk address mismatch.
