arm64: kasan: avoid TLB conflicts The page table modification performed during the KASAN init risks the allocation of conflicting TLB entries, as it swaps a set of valid global entries for another without suitable TLB maintenance. The presence of conflicting TLB entries can result in the delivery of synchronous TLB conflict aborts, or may result in the use of erroneous data being returned in response to a TLB lookup. This can affect explicit data accesses from software as well as translations performed asynchronously (e.g. as part of page table walks or speculative I-cache fetches), and can therefore result in a wide variety of problems. To avoid this, use cpu_replace_ttbr1 to swap the page tables. This ensures that when the new tables are installed there are no stale entries from the old tables which may conflict. As all updates are made to the tables while they are not active, the updates themselves are safe. At the same time, add the missing barrier to ensure that the tmp_pg_dir entries updated via memcpy are visible to the page table walkers at the point the tmp_pg_dir is installed. All other page table updates made as part of KASAN initialisation have the requisite barriers due to the use of the standard page table accessors.
