Linux kernel source tree
When installing the EFI virtual address map during early boot, we
access the EFI system table to retrieve the 1:1 mapped address of
the SetVirtualAddressMap() EFI runtime service. This memory is not
known to KASAN, so on KASAN enabled builds, this may result in a
splat like

BUG: KASAN: user-memory-access in efi_set_virtual_address_map+0x141/0x354

Since this code runs only a single time during early boot, let's annotate
it as __no_sanitize_address so KASAN disregards it entirely.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
