In preparation for adding vmalloc support to SW/HW_TAGS KASAN, reset pointer tags in functions that use pointer values in range checks. vread() is a special case here. Despite the untagging of the addr pointer in its prologue, the accesses performed by vread() are checked. Instead of accessing the virtual mappings though addr directly, vread() recovers the physical address via page_address(vmalloc_to_page()) and acceses that. And as page_address() recovers the pointer tag, the accesses get checked.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
