When a CPU is shut down or placed into a low power state, the functions
on the critical path to firmware never return, and hence their epilogues
never execute. When using KASAN, this means that the shadow entries for
the corresponding stack are poisoned but never unpoisoned. When a CPU
subsequently re-enters the kernel via another path, and begins using
the stack, it may hit stale poison values, leading to false-positive
KASAN failures.

We can't ensure that all functions on the critical path are not
instrumented. For CPU hotplug this includes lots of core code starting
from secondary_start_kernel, and for CPU idle we can't ensure that
specific functions are not instrumented, as the compiler always poisons
the stack even when told to not instrument a function:

https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=69863

This patch works around the issue by forcefully unpoisoning the shadow
region for all stack on the critical path, before we return to
instrumented C code. As we cannot statically determine the stack usage
of code in the critical path, we must clear the shadow for all remaining
stack, meaning that we must clear up to 2K of shadow memory each time a
CPU enters the kernel from idle or hotplug.

Since v1 [1]:
* Remove unneeded offset
* Simplify calculation

For the timebeing I've retained the arm64-specific hotplug fix, though it might
be possible to handle the hotplug case in common code (e.g. [2]). 

Mark.
