[PATCH 5.19.y] Revert "mm: kfence: apply kmemleak_ignore_phys on early allocated pool"
From: Marco Elver
Date: Tue Aug 16 2022 - 12:37:45 EST
This reverts commit 07313a2b29ed1079eaa7722624544b97b3ead84b.
Commit 0c24e061196c21d5 ("mm: kmemleak: add rbtree and store physical
address for objects allocated with PA") is not yet in 5.19 (but appears
in 6.0). Without 0c24e061196c21d5, kmemleak still stores phys objects
and non-phys objects in the same tree, and ignoring (instead of freeing)
will cause insertions into the kmemleak object tree by the slab
post-alloc hook to conflict with the pool object (see comment).
Reports such as the following would appear on boot, and effectively
disable kmemleak:
| kmemleak: Cannot insert 0xffffff806e24f000 into the object search tree (overlaps existing)
| CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 5.19.0-v8-0815+ #5
