Hi,

Since scs allocation has been moved to vmalloc region, the
shadow stack is protected by kasan_posion_vmalloc.
However, the vfree_atomic operation needs to access
its context for scs_free process and causes kasan error
as the dump info below.

This patch Adds kasan_unpoison_vmalloc() before vfree_atomic,
which aligns to the prior flow as using kmem_cache.
The vmalloc region will go back posioned in the following
vumap() operations.

Thanks for the patch! I believe I had this in the original vmap SCS
series, but Will pointed out that unpoisoning shouldn't be necessary
before vfree_atomic() and I don't remember seeing this KASAN error
back then. I wonder if something changed there? Either way, the patch
looks good to me.
