Subject[PATCH v8 02/12] x86_64: load_percpu_segment: read irq_stack_union.gs_base before load_segment
Date
Reading irq_stack_union.gs_base after load_segment creates troubles for kasan.
Compiler inserts __asan_load in between load_segment and wrmsrl. If kernel
built with stackprotector this will result in boot failure because __asan_load
has stackprotector.

To avoid this irq_stack_union.gs_base stored to temporary variable before
load_segment, so __asan_load will be called before load_segment().

There are two alternative ways to fix this:
a) Add __attribute__((no_sanitize_address)) to load_percpu_segment(),
which tells compiler to not instrument this function. However this
will result in build failure with CONFIG_KASAN=y and CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING=y.

b) Add -fno-stack-protector for mm/kasan/kasan.c
