SubjectRe: [PATCH v10 17/17] kasan: enable instrumentation of global variables

global variables *within modules*, I think? More specificity needed here.

Like this:

size_t shadow_size;
unsigned long shadow_start;
void *ret;

shadow_size = round_up(size >> KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT, PAGE_SIZE);
shadow_start = kasan_mem_to_shadow((unsigned long)addr);

it's much easier to read and avoids the 80-column trickery.

I do suspect that

void *kasan_mem_to_shadow(const void *addr);

would clean up lots and lots of code.

This can be removed?
