The quilt patch titled
     Subject: x86/mm: disable instrumentations of mm/pgprot.c
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     x86-mm-disable-instrumentations-of-mm-pgprotc.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: x86/mm: disable instrumentations of mm/pgprot.c
Date: Wed, 24 Aug 2022 17:47:26 +0900

Commit 4867fbbdd6b3 ("x86/mm: move protection_map[] inside the platform")
moved accesses to protection_map[] from mem_encrypt_amd.c to pgprot.c.  As
a result, the accesses are now targets of KASAN (and other
instrumentations), leading to the crash during the boot process.

Disable the instrumentations for pgprot.c like commit 67bb8e999e0a
("x86/mm: Disable various instrumentations of mm/mem_encrypt.c and
mm/tlb.c").

Before this patch, my AMD machine cannot boot since v6.0-rc1 with KASAN
enabled, without anything printed.  After the change, it successfully
boots up.

Fixes: 4867fbbdd6b3 ("x86/mm: move protection_map[] inside the platform")
