Hi Sebastian,

Indeed, sorry for breaking lockdep. Thank you for the report!

I wonder what's the proper fix for this. Perhaps, don't hide KASAN GFP
bits under CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS? And then do:

#define __GFP_BITS_SHIFT (27 + IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_LOCKDEP))

Vlastimil, Andrew do you have any preference?

If my suggestion sounds good, Andrew, could you directly apply the
changes? They are needed for these 3 patches:

kasan, page_alloc: allow skipping memory init for HW_TAGS
kasan, page_alloc: allow skipping unpoisoning for HW_TAGS
kasan, mm: only define ___GFP_SKIP_KASAN_POISON with HW_TAGS

As these depend on each other, I can't send separate patches that can
be folded for all 3.

Thanks!
