KASAN fills kernel page tables with repeated values to map several
TBs of the virtual memory to the single kasan_zero_page:
kasan_zero_p4d ->
kasan_zero_pud ->
kasan_zero_pmd->
kasan_zero_pte->
kasan_zero_page
Walking the whole KASAN shadow range takes a lot of time, especially
with 5-level page tables. Since we already know that all kasan page tables
eventually point to the kasan_zero_page we could call note_page()
right and avoid walking lower levels of the page tables.
This will not affect the output of the kernel_page_tables file,
but let us avoid spending time in page table walkers:
Before:
$ time cat /sys/kernel/debug/kernel_page_tables > /dev/null
real 0m55.855s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m55.840s
After:
$ time cat /sys/kernel/debug/kernel_page_tables > /dev/null
real 0m0.054s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.054s
