Re: [RFC v2 01/13] mm/kfence: Add a new kunit test test_use_after_free_read_nofault()
From: IBM

Hello Kasan/kfence-devs,
Wanted your inputs on this kfence kunit test [PATCH-1] and it's respective
powerpc fix [Patch-2]. The commit msgs has a good description of it. I
see that the same problem was noticed on s390 as well [1] a while ago.
So that makes me believe that maybe we should have a kunit test for the
same to make sure all architectures handles this properly.
Thoughts?
