At the time being, an early hash table is set up when CONFIG_KASAN is selected. There is nothing wrong with setting such an early hash table all the time, even if it is not used. This is a statically allocated 256 kB table which lies in the init data section. This makes the code simpler and may in the future allow to setup early IO mappings with fixmap instead of hard coding BATs. Put create_hpte() and flush_hash_pages() in the .ref.text section in order to avoid warning for the reference to early_hash[]. This reference is removed by MMU_init_hw_patch() before init memory is freed.

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.
