Thoughts?
The KASAN report_lock was changed to a raw_spinlock_t in v6.13 kernel with commit e30a0361b851 ("kasan: make report_lock a raw spinlock") to fix a similar RT problem. The report_lock is acquired before calling print_address_description(). Before commit e30a0361b851, this find_vm_area() is a secondary issue. We may consider commit e30a0361b851 isn't complete and this is a fix for that.
The DEFINE_WAIT_OVERRIDE_MAP() macro was introduced in v6.4. So this patch cannot be backported to a version earlier than that unless commit 0cce06ba859a is there.
