Subject: [PATCH v3] mm: kfence: allocate kfence_metadata at runtime

kfence_metadata is currently a static array. For the purpose of allocating
scalable __kfence_pool, we first change it to runtime allocation of
metadata. Since the size of an object of kfence_metadata is 1160 bytes, we
can save at least 72 pages (with default 256 objects) without enabling
kfence.

Signed-off-by: Peng Zhang <zhangpeng.00@...edance.com>
---
Changes since v2:
 - Fix missing renaming of kfence_alloc_pool.
 - Add __read_mostly for kfence_metadata and kfence_metadata_init.
 - Use smp_store_release() and smp_load_acquire() to access kfence_metadata.
 - Some tweaks to comments and git log.
