stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.199 commit 6788b10620ca6e98575d1e06e72a8974aad7657e category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/I95AT0

--------------------------------
commit d35652a5fc9944784f6f50a5c979518ff8dacf61 upstream.
Fei has reported that KASAN triggers during apply_alternatives() on a 5-level paging machine:
BUG: KASAN: out-of-bounds in rcu_is_watching() Read of size 4 at addr ff110003ee6419a0 by task swapper/0/0 ... __asan_load4() rcu_is_watching() trace_hardirqs_on() text_poke_early() apply_alternatives() ...
On machines with 5-level paging, cpu_feature_enabled(X86_FEATURE_LA57) gets patched. It includes KASAN code, where KASAN_SHADOW_START depends on __VIRTUAL_MASK_SHIFT, which is defined with cpu_feature_enabled().
KASAN gets confused when apply_alternatives() patches the KASAN_SHADOW_START users. A test patch that makes KASAN_SHADOW_START static, by replacing __VIRTUAL_MASK_SHIFT with 56, works around the issue.
Fix it for real by disabling KASAN while the kernel is patching alternatives.
