The aux_stack[2] is reused to record the call_rcu() call stack,
timer init call stack, and enqueuing work call stacks. So that
we need to change the auxiliary stack title for common title,
print them in KASAN report.

- Thanks for Marco suggestion.
- We modify aux stack title name in KASAN report
  in order to print call_rcu()/timer/workqueue stack.

This doesn't have to be a work creation (expect more callers of
kasan_record_aux_stack() in the future), so maybe change the wording
here to "Last potentially related auxiliary stack"?

I suggested "work creation" as it's the most precise for what it is
used for now.

What other users do you have in mind in future that are not work creation?

I suggested "work creation" as it's the most precise for what it is
used for now.

What other users do you have in mind in future that are not work creation?

I think saving stacks may help in any case where an object is reused
for a different purpose without reallocation.
SKBs, maybe?

I currently don't know, it's hard to say without having a report that
we can't debug without it.

The litmus test for if it's useful would probably be "do we need this
stacktrace to debug a use-after-free/double-free?". If the answer is
maybe (and not yes!), I'd err on the side of not going overboard with
these, because we only have limited storage anyway. "Work creation" is
a clear case of "we loose information to the original caller" and need
it to debug. But of course, if there are similar issues elsewhere, we
need to identify them and then decide if we need it.

I currently don't know, it's hard to say without having a report that
we can't debug without it.

The litmus test for if it's useful would probably be "do we need this
stacktrace to debug a use-after-free/double-free?". If the answer is
maybe (and not yes!), I'd err on the side of not going overboard with
these, because we only have limited storage anyway. "Work creation" is
a clear case of "we loose information to the original caller" and need
it to debug. But of course, if there are similar issues elsewhere, we
need to identify them and then decide if we need it.
