Sorry about this. :/

Will, to save you reading all the below, I think the right thing to do
for now is to revert this.

Building with that config, I see a boot time-hang on the primary CPU
under QEMU TCG, with or without VHE (in both cases, a stuck in a
recursive synchronous exception). With the patch reverted, the kernel
boots.

Looking at the assembly, task_cpu() gets instrumented (which puts this
patch on dodgy ground generally and I think warrants the revert), but as
it's instrumented with KASAN_INLINE that doesn't immediately explain the
issue since the shadow should be up and so we shouldn't call the report
function. I'll dig into this some more.

Assembly dumps below; for init_this_cpu_offset the reference to
page_wait_table+0x4d00 is generating the address for __per_cpu_offset,
but objdump doesn't have enough info to resolve that nicely.
