Note, this commit has a dependency on:

  d17a1d97dc20: x86/mm/kasan: don't use vmemmap_populate() to initialize shadow

which got merged upstream outside the x86 tree, so it has a whole bunch of merge 
window dependencies.

To make testing+backporting to v4.14 easier I've cherry-picked d17a1d97dc20 into 
x86/urgent.

( I've Cc:-ed Linus, just in case this kind of preemptive cherry-picking is 
  frowned upon. )

Thanks,

	Ingo
