Patch series "kasan: support stack instrumentation for tag-based mode", v2. This patch (of 5): Prepare Software Tag-Based KASAN for stack tagging support. With Tag-Based KASAN when kernel stacks are allocated via pagealloc (which happens when CONFIG_VMAP_STACK is not enabled), they get tagged. KASAN instrumentation doesn't expect the sp register to be tagged, and this leads to false-positive reports. Fix by resetting the tag of kernel stack pointers after allocation.

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.
