[PATCH v3 3/5] kfence: move saving stack trace of allocations into __kfence_alloc()

From: Marco Elver
Date: Thu Sep 23 2021 - 06:48:29 EST


Move the saving of the stack trace of allocations into __kfence_alloc(),
so that the stack entries array can be used outside of
kfence_guarded_alloc() and we avoid potentially unwinding the stack
multiple times.
