We find the root cause of this OOB is that arm does not clear stale stack poison in the case of cpuidle.

This patch refer to arch/arm64/kernel/sleep.S to resolve this issue.

From cited commit [1] that explain the problem

Functions which the compiler has instrumented for KASAN place poison on the stack shadow upon entry and remove this poison prior to returning.

In the case of cpuidle, CPUs exit the kernel a number of levels deep in C code. Any instrumented functions on this critical path will leave portions of the stack shadow poisoned.

If CPUs lose context and return to the kernel via a cold path, we restore a prior context saved in _cpususpend_enter are forgotten, and we never remove the poison they placed in the stack shadow area by functions calls between this and the actual exit of the kernel.

Thus, (depending on stackframe layout) subsequent calls to instrumented functions may hit this stale poison, resulting in (spurious) KASAN splats to the console.

To avoid this, clear any stale poison from the idle thread for a CPU prior to bringing a CPU online.

From cited commit [2]

Extend to check for CONFIGKASANSTACK
