This time I'm using a standard arm64 defconfig, except kasan and kmemleak is enabled (I need to enable them when developing software - joke). Maybe it's a known issue, I don't know.

Hi guys,

I'm experimenting by trying to boot an allmodconfig arm64 kernel, as mentioned here:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/507325a3-030e-2843-0f46-7e18c60257de@xxxxxxxxxx/

One thing that I noticed - it's hard to miss actually - is the amount of complaining from KASAN about the EDAC/ghes code. Maybe this is something I should not care about/red herring, or maybe something genuine. Let me know what you think.

The kernel is v5.4-rc3, and I raised the EDAC mc debug level to get extra debug prints.
