[to-be-updated] mm-debug-pageallocc-split-out-page-poisoning-from-debug-page_alloc.patch removed from -mm tree

[akpm]

The patch titled
     Subject: mm/debug-pagealloc.c: split out page poisoning from debug page_alloc
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-debug-pageallocc-split-out-page-poisoning-from-debug-page_alloc.patch

This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged

------------------------------------------------------
From: Laura Abbott <labbott@fedoraproject.org>
Subject: mm/debug-pagealloc.c: split out page poisoning from debug page_alloc

This is an implementation of page poisoning/sanitization for all arches. 
It takes advantage of the existing implementation for
!ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC arches.  This is a different approach than
what the Grsecurity patches were taking but should provide equivalent
functionality.

For those who aren't familiar with this, the goal of sanitization is to
reduce the severity of use after free and uninitialized data bugs.  Memory
is cleared on free so any sensitive data is no longer available. 
Discussion of sanitization was brough up in a thread about CVEs
(lkml.kernel.org/g/<20160119112812.GA10818@mwanda>)

I eventually expect Kconfig names will want to be changed and or moved if
this is going to be used for security but that can happen later.

This patch (of 3):

For architectures that do not have debug page_alloc
(!ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC), page poisoning is used instead.  Even
architectures that do have DEBUG_PAGEALLOC may want to take advantage of
the poisoning feature.  Separate out page poisoning into a separate file. 
This does not change the default behavior for
!ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC.
