This small series contains some improvements for the riscv KASAN code:

- it brings a better readability of the code (patch 1/2)
- it fixes oversight regarding page table population which I uncovered
while working on my sv48 patchset (patch 3)
- it helps to have better performance by using hugepages when possible
(patch 4)

I'm cc-ing linux-arch and linux-mm to get more chance to have reviewers
on this series.

Sorry about that, I must have missed these. For some reason I remember having
read the big one, so I'm not sure what happened. They're on for-next.

Thanks!
