[PATCH v2 0/5] kasan: integrate with init_on_alloc/free

This patch series integrates HW_TAGS KASAN with init_on_alloc/free
by initializing memory via the same arm64 instruction that sets memory
tags.

This is expected to improve HW_TAGS KASAN performance when
init_on_alloc/free is enabled. The exact perfomance numbers are unknown
as MTE-enabled hardware doesn't exist yet.

Changes v1->v2:
- Add and use kasan_has_integrated_init() helper.
- Update comments to not explicitly mention relation between
  HW_TAGS KASAN and memory init.
- Fix non initting memory with kasan=off by checking kasan_enabled()
  instead of IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS).

Andrey Konovalov (5):
  arm64: kasan: allow to init memory when setting tags
  kasan: init memory in kasan_(un)poison for HW_TAGS
  kasan, mm: integrate page_alloc init with HW_TAGS
  kasan, mm: integrate slab init_on_alloc with HW_TAGS
  kasan, mm: integrate slab init_on_free with HW_TAGS
