[merged mm-stable] mm-kmsan-remove-runtime-checks-from-kmsan_unpoison_memory.patch removed from -mm tree

[Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm: kmsan: remove runtime checks from kmsan_unpoison_memory()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-kmsan-remove-runtime-checks-from-kmsan_unpoison_memory.patch

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

Subject: mm: kmsan: remove runtime checks from kmsan_unpoison_memory()
Date: Wed, 24 Jan 2024 18:31:34 +0100

Similarly to what's been done in commit 85716a80c16d ("kmsan: allow using
__msan_instrument_asm_store() inside runtime"), it should be safe to call
kmsan_unpoison_memory() from within the runtime, as it does not allocate
memory or take locks.  Remove the redundant runtime checks.

This should fix false positives seen with CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST=y when
the non-instrumented lib/stackdepot.c failed to unpoison the memory
chunks later checked by the instrumented lib/list_debug.c

Also replace the implementation of kmsan_unpoison_entry_regs() with
a call to kmsan_unpoison_memory().
