Description Andrey Konovalov 2021-11-14 21:15:08 UTC 
Per-CPU allocator (mm/percpu.c) is missing any kind of KASAN annotations. This likely means that KASAN can't detect overflows between per-CPU variables or __alloc_percpu() allocations. This needs to be investigated, and appropriate annotations need to be added.
