In the case where KASAN directly allocates memory to back vmalloc
space, don't map the early shadow page over it.

We prepopulate pgds/p4ds for the range that would otherwise be empty.
This is required to get it synced to hardware on boot, allowing the
lower levels of the page tables to be filled dynamically.

This doesn't make sense. start is not even a pfn. With linear mapping 
we try to identify nid to have the shadow on the same node as memory. But 
in this case we don't have memory or the corresponding shadow (yet),
we only install pgd/p4d.
I guess we could just use NUMA_NO_NODE.

Ah wow, that's quite the clanger on my part.

There are a couple of other invocations of early_pfn_to_nid in that file
that use an address directly, but at least they reference actual memory.
I'll send a separate patch to fix those up.

The rest looks ok, so with that fixed:

Thanks heaps! I've fixed up the nit you identifed in the first patch,
and I agree that the last patch probably isn't needed. I'll respin the
series shortly.
