[PATCH 2/2] alloc_tag: fix set_codetag_empty() when !CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG
From: Suren Baghdasaryan
Date: Fri Nov 29 2024 - 19:14:41 EST
It was recently noticed that set_codetag_empty() might be used not only
to mark NULL alloctag references as empty to avoid warnings but also to
reset valid tags (in clear_page_tag_ref()). Since set_codetag_empty() is
defined as NOOP for CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG=n, such use of
set_codetag_empty() leads to subtle bugs.
Fix set_codetag_empty() for CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG=n to reset
the tag reference.
Fixes: a8fc28dad6d5 ("alloc_tag: introduce clear_page_tag_ref() helper function")
