Subject: [PATCH 1/6] arm64: mm: remove unreachable invalid range check in kasan_init_shadow()
Date: Sun, 21 Jun 2026 23:59:11 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260621145919.1453-2-ekffu200098@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260621145919.1453-1-ekffu200098@gmail.com>
kasan_init_shadow() maps each memblock region with for_each_mem_range()
and breaks the loop when start >= end. for_each_mem_range() never returns
an invalid range, so start < end always.
Therefore the start >= end check is unreachable, so remove it.
No functional change.
