From fbefb423f873a8713a2ad42b5dcb4585b3e58e01 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrey Konovalov Date: Thu, 24 Mar 2022 18:11:50 -0700 Subject: kasan: allow enabling KASAN_VMALLOC and SW/HW_TAGS Allow enabling CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC with SW_TAGS and HW_TAGS KASAN modes. Also adjust CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC description: - Mention HW_TAGS support. - Remove unneeded internal details: they have no place in Kconfig description and are already explained in the documentation.
